Izzy Award Winner Jeremy Scahill: "We're At a Ground Zero Moment to Save Real Journalism" http://www.alternet.org/media/146162?page=entire

I would define an independent journalist as someone that's totally un-embedded when it comes to their relationship with the powerful. In other words, you don't get into bed with any political party. I'm not a Democrat; I'm not a Republican. I'm a journalist. It means that you don't get in bed with the military, with the CIA, or wealthy corporations, and you don't compromise your journalistic or your personal integrity in the pursuit of anything, including a story.
