Williams Introduced The Journalist's Creed
|
Walter Williams wrote The Journalist's Creed, a personal affirmation of journalism ethics. It was incorporated into the 1914 Deskbook of the School of Journalism, a basic style manual developed by the faculty for the Missourian newsroom. All students were required to memorize the creed, which was later published in more than 100 languages.

The Journalist's Creed first appeared in the School's Deskbook (left, in 1915) and was etched in bronze at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., in 1958 (right).
