Journalism is a method of inquiry and literary style that aims to provide a service to the public by the dissemination and analysis of news and other information. Journalistic integrity is based on the principles of truth, disclosure, and editorial independence. Journalistic mediums can vary diversely, from print publishing to electronic broadcasting, and from newspaper to television channels, as well as to the web, and to digital technology.

In modern society, the news media is the chief purveyor of information and opinion about public affairs. Journalism, however, is not always confined to the news media or to news itself, as journalistic communication may find its way into broader forms of expression, including literature and cinema. In some nations, the news media is still controlled by government intervention, and is not fully an independent body.

In a democratic society, however, access to free information plays a central role in creating a system of checks and balance, and in distributing power equally amongst governments, businesses, individuals, and other social entities. Access to verifiable information gathered by independent media sources, which adhere to journalistic standards, can also be of service to ordinary citizens, by empowering them with the tools they need in order to participate in the political process.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Phyllis Roberts was financially wiped out by one of her sons

By Kerry Kavanaugh

DULUTH, Ga. — A local family is speaking out after their elderly mother lost her home and all her money, but died before the case ever went to trial.

The woman's son has been in the Gwinnett County Jail for nearly two years, accused of stealing nearly $400,000.

"She was devastated. She could not understand why she had to leave her home," Nan Roberts told Channel 2's Kerry Kavanaugh. Roberts said her mother-in-law suffered through her final days.

"She was terrorized," Fred Roberts said about his mother, Phyllis Roberts.

Duluth police said Phyllis Roberts was financially wiped out by another of her sons, Steven Lee Roberts.

Investigators said Steven Lee Roberts gave himself power of attorney, took close to $400,000 and took off to California.

"She never could comprehend that the money was gone," Nan Roberts said.

The family said she saved her entire life to afford the care required to die at home. She passed away in a nursing home.
