  17. No time for cynicism …

  18. It is about making informed CHOICES. About practicising respect for the “legend”that media can build public integrity. Here’s HELP …

  19. H – eart E – xternalise L – ook again P – ossibilities Dealing with stories

  20. Finding inspiration to stay true to what you know is right

  21. Individual integrity = the heart of media for producers & consumers
