@dallasnews "Call it mutual accountability. In the same way that news organizations rightly believe their role is to hold the powerful accountable, we recognize that we need to be held accountable, too. It’s a two-way street."
@dallasnews "There will be times when Stephen defends the journalists and times when Stephen defends you, the reader. I know Stephen will not always agree with our judgment calls, which is OK. We are not perfect, and we don’t get it right 100 percent of the time. It’s my hope that Stephen will help you better understand the role of the media, which will ultimately help you learn you can trust us as your primary source of news."
Here’s how The Dallas Morning News is investing in readers’ trust 📰
"Readers’ confidence in the media is damaged but can be repaired and that’s why we’re hiring a public editor."
"Stephen will field questions, research them, & not only answer them directly but also publish columns in our paper, sharing what he finds."
