You’ve got a great big responsibility

Who says journalism ethics is all seriousness and no light? Not the folks at Columbia University’s SPJ chapter, who somehow managed to turn the Society of Professional Journalists ethics code into a song. The title: “You’ve got a great big responsibility.” My favorite lyric:

Sometimes you won’t be popular
Some folks will get annoyed
But if you seek the truth and write it,
you’ll always be employed!

Words to live by. Enjoy!
