What We Stand For
The Western Center for Journalism’s mission is to educate individuals, citizen journalist “bloggers”, groups and the public at large about the value and necessity of a free speech, free press and freedom of association. The purpose of the free press is to hold the powerful accountable by gathering and disseminating facts versus opinions. Our mission is to nurture, develop and deploy top notch classically educated journalists of integrity who will report the news in an unbiased fashion, challenge the powerful and status quo, expose corruption and perform the intended role of the 4th Estate which was never to be a propaganda arm of government or any political party or corporate interest or branch of government.
