The peculiar Western attempt to be objective is a long, honorable tradition that is part of our continuing struggle to discern and communicate significant, well-grounded truths and make fair decisions in society,” [UBC journalism professor Stephen J. Ward] writes in his book [Invention of Journalism Ethics].
