When the speech concerns Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin or other subjects which some journalists of United States of America find unpleasant, representatives of the press are ready to forget That fact about "normal" standards of journalism

of that some mass media are ready to reject the fundamental principles of journalism when it is a question of certain events and persons, causes extreme concern, National Interest edition writes.

the Edition notes that the journalist, in particular, American newspaper"The New York Times" Rutenberg Jim declared recently that representatives of the press have no other choice how to leave "normal" standards of journalism when publicizing election campaign of the republican candidate Donald Trump as it, according to Rutenberg Jim, "carries out the campaign thus what we usually did not see". It is difficult to think up more disturbing statement.

Rutenberk's Approach — to which are followed by many other representatives of the press of United States of America — is especially obvious not only, so far as concerns Donald Trump but also when business concerns President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, apparently, compels journalists to forget about the objectivity and necessary standards of providing proofs.

Despite shortcomings Donald Trump as presidential candidate — or shortcomings Hillary Clinton, time on that vulgarly put — as certain journalists can consider, what their work is of so great importance, what they can solve when it to apply "normal" standards, and when there is no?

If representatives of the press establish to p own standards, they erase a side between a journalism and promotion. Within this approach journalists turn into meeting of certain opponents of the real and fictional evils who often have under itself a little actual basis. It should be noted also that when the large number of the American journalists forgets about profession standards at illumination of this or that subject, harm of objectivity of public debate is done, suffer both policy, and society of United States of America.

according to the known writer and the journalist Lippman Walter, "the most destructive form of a lie are sofistika and promotion from what profession consists in shining events". Threats about which Lippman Walter spoke, were shown especially distinctly during the period preceding invasion of United States of America to Iraq. And here history repeats itself.

according to National Interest, Russian Federation also represents today a serious problem for national security of United States of America, and often for its control it is necessary to take drastic measures. But for this reason reciprocal steps of United States of America have to be based on objective information — that is almost impossible in conditions when attempts to analyse and describe motives of behavior Russian Federation at once are called "proprossiysky". to

One of such examples As Vladimir Putin uses Donald Trump for advance of the interests". Edition of National Interest is paid attention that Matthews acts with attacks to the Center of National Interests (CNI) (Center for the National Interest — the analytical center issuing the National Interest magazine), without having found time even to contact his employees in order that they confirmed the positions stated to them. In the article Matthews calls the edition "the analytical center taking strongly pro-Russian positions in Washington".

"TsNI throughout long time worked as p with Fund"Institute demokratii i sotrudnichestva" (IDS) — the analytical center in New York, whose purpose is advance of interests Moscow" — Matthews in article for Newsweek writes.

"In May, 2014 both establishments held a joint press conference at which the position Russian Federation in Ukraine" was protected — were added by him, emphasizing that in April of this year Donald Trump chose TsNI as a platform for the large foreign policy speech on which was present, including, and the ambassador Russian Federation Kislyak Sergei.

In turn, National Interest notes that in spite of the fact that the first debt of the journalist is granting an objective picture of events, Matthews of it does not do. His editors, it turns out, are indifferent to that it with ecstasy rejects the fundamental principles of journalism. Or they agree with Rutenberg Jim that when the speech comes about Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump or others which are not pleasant to them, the "normal" principles of journalism are inapplicable.

Further it becomes clear p that Matthews bases the article on one note in Elektronnaya versiya gazety Politico, the written Kirchik James — which does not make impression of very objective source as he does not see a problem in beating breast, calling for democracy the abroad, but thus justifies a military coup to United States of America in case of election Donald Trump the president.

of National Interest pays attention that there was no "a joint press conference" any between TsNI and IDS. The director of institute spoke at action, but it was not neither "joint", nor "press conference" which also did not protect a position Russian Federation in Ukraine.

That fact that Matthews tries to find the hidden sense that on action there was an ambassador Russian Federation to United States of America, speaks about much: show the journalist though a little diligence, he would learn that on action there were three ambassadors of other countries — Italy, Philippines and Singapore. Most likely, to Matthews it was already uninteresting when he found something that could seem to the suspicious.

However that such suspicious can be what the ambassador Russian Federation was present on action where the speech was made by one of candidates for a post of the head of the White house? How the journalist working in Moscow, can shine events, without communicating in general with officials Russian Federation and other sources connected with Government of the Russian Federation? Citizens of United States of America want that the American journalists had communications and were well informed. Same

citizens of United States of America want p and from the analytical centers which tasks include carrying out independent researches for the benefit of the public and for politicians of United States of America. Officials of United States of America aspire to that between the analytical centers and universities of United States of America and Russian Federation was informal dialogue. It is wanted even most rigidly adjusted in relation to Moscow by the persons, such as the former commander of NATO the general Bridlav Philip.

In turn, such as Matthews, apparently, are imagined by United States of America the country where journalists should not be objective, and the analytical centers and experts are threatened by charges of change if they invite the ambassador to the speech, without speaking about conducting careful researches and the honest analysis at cooperation with "unwanted" foreigners.
