- Journalists have a unique skill set in an era of fake news and echo chambers. Kelsey Samuels asks the question, “What if I’m wrong?”
Kelsey Samuels is no stranger to North Texas and its changing landscape. She graduated from Texas Christian University with a B.A. in Journalism, then worked as web editor and general assignment reporter for the Lufkin Daily News in East Texas. She currently works for the Plano Star Courier as the community reporter. Kelsey is a fan of the internet, but as a journalist she’s an observer more than a participant. This is why she believes her tweets and posts are so lame.

This TED talk needs way, WAY more views.
The title could be changed into "How Journalists spot fake news" to get more views! This is very informative. I am a campus journalist and it was always a challenge of my credibility when sharing news in today's agile media.
Do like to share your view please.
I'd like to make a conclusion that some people are drawn to journalism because they realize they have been wrong. I'm still a junior and I'm interested in society and welfare. Now what it took from me to realize I've been wrong was that I've been living in a wealthy family, and I had believed that people can live well as long as they get sufficient of their needs. But boy was I wrong. It only gets complicated. The world, let alone my country, has a deeply flawed system. The undemanding labor market, the unfair share for wage, corruption, and many more problems to name that needs to be worked on. I believe by making the people stand on their ground as my writing delivers truth to them, all actions that are needed to be taken will come as a fruit of an honest awareness. I believe that with being truthful, sincerity will become mankind's culture. Thanks to this intellectual lady that now I can be clear about my perspective.
Babble blubbering clown 🤡
We are using Media to help shape our personal biases instead of adjusting our beliefs to fit the evidence in front of us. AMAZING STATEMENT!
"Read the headline, the lead, the body before you talk about it" a big yes for this!
This was a great TED Talk; it definitely deserves more recognition :)
I am completing my MA in Journalism at Wits University in Johannesburg, South Africa and honestly, I think we as journalists are discrediting the profession by giving legitimacy to the term "fake news". This is because anyone can label news they are not comfortable with as "fake news". We should rather talk of "misinformation". Often times, what passes for "fake news" doesn't even meet the criteria for what constitutes "news". If it is news, it can't be fake; and if it is fake, it can't be news.
hi im doing my second year at dut really need some information from you
A very good point
“Misinformation” is worse version of fake news. It means that news you don’t like is wrong in some way even if it is entirely true.
Thanks always wanted to hear the opinion of some goofball 😂
Very informative and thought provoking conversation!
Wow. Thank you so much for sharing, Ms. Samuels. I wanted a way to share this idea with my Journalism students, and you did an amazing job of saying exactly what I want them to hear before they start writing articles for our school newspaper. Not only that, but I will share the link on my Facebook page as well, as I believe everyone out there on social media needs to hear the important points you make about diversifying where they get their news. I cringe at so many of the things shared by people I love or consider a friend. Take care!
the most inspiring Ted talk I've have ever seen
You're a great public speaker and you make awesome points. Good job!
That was incredible, truly.Trying to think of something meaningful to say but how do you follow THAT -- Bravo
Wow she is an incredible public speaker.
....and here I am , trying to cram as much info as possible for entrance examination for admission in "journalism " ! ,😋😋😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
Ratio
How does this not have a million views? She has a powerful voice that more people need to hear
Kelsey Samuels' TEDxPlano talk, 'Think Like A Journalist,' is truly outstanding. She's an incredible public speaker, and her message about being responsible consumers of news is both eye-opening and thought-provoking. Her talk deserves more recognition, and it's a must-watch for anyone interested in journalism.
I use you in my J1 class! You are needed! You are my kids' knowledge too.
What a tremendous explanation, the information that you’re giving to us is really useful for the near future. Thank you for reminding us about how important a credibility when sharing news in today’s agile media.
This is an awesome Ted talk!! As a student of journalism I've always wondered why people never read the whole piece of news before sharing it. This talk made me realise things that I've always tried to ignore. Thanks to her!!
Can't believe this only has 16k views.
Great presentation. So many excellent points.
Thoughts;
1. If the social media world she created wasn’t reality, isn’t it possible that the world others perceive isn’t “reality” either?Maybe truth is a mixture of all sides.
2. Anyone else notice she called Trayvon a “little boy?” As a journalist, I found that interesting.
3. I will be sharing this. It gives several things to think about.
Absolutely wonderful story about self reflection and social growth and awareness... But I was hoping by the title that I would get tips on... I dunno. Maybe on how to think like a journalist? :/
Truly one of the best talks EVER!
This is very helpful and true. Keep of the good job.
Wow Beautiful delivery & Amazing voice 😍💙🌹
I better watch this TED Talk before having to do my next speech in class assignment. Good thing Kelsey Samuels thinks like a journalist while she has a brilliant and healthy long term memory too. Good thing reasonable people do not believe that anyone should be expected to know how to think like both a journalist and an FBI agent or a public health professional at the same time during the same formal interview or during the same formal speach that day.
Brilliant, beautiful and humorous
This is probably the best ted talk Ive seen its so good
Your story telling skills are amazing
Damm, that reality check hit me as a little kid in nyc. I mean I looked for reasons why the world was so messed up before I hit puberty.
Stay curious, reality is malleable to those with knowledge.
Awesome n underrated
Name a politician that was trust worthy within the past 20 years 4:20
Let's be honest, no one is completely trust worthy. No politician, not even your best friend. Sure, how trust worthy someone is varies, but no one is 100%. And if someone says they're 'trustworthy', then they're definitely not.
I like the local district representative in our state...our local school board is ok...can't think of any national ones though.
She is a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice and a beautiful and real message.
Very informative and inspirational!
i want to present my story.. please give me a chance..
AMAZING TEDTALK, AMAZING SPEAKER.
Beautiful lady with a perspective 👌
I would love to see more tedtalks of yours
My coverage shape people's perspectives of their community
God..I really like your voice.
Great speech👏
Remember this if its fake its not news.
I will
Absolutely love this! Definitely will take this forward as i continue my journalism career.
Find every perspective to the story not just the ones that suit your fancy
Strong, beautiful, modest, intelligent...I could not pinpoint your political bias. Much respect.
What is the minimum standard qualification of being a journalist in CNN, Fox News, BBC news, and etc…
Wow... this is so inspiring..
Good!
Love this
Well ....good talk
Kelsey nice talk.
That was beautiful friend!
fantastic
Loved! Thank you.

You appear nervous,queen,but you nonetheless got your thought out.
Iconic
cool stuff
I'm Sory..Are there no subtitles to Indonesian?
BEAUTIFULLY said I applaud you miss
That FLAMA shoutout ayyyyy
Very well said. I really enjoyed this TED talk.
We r MEDIAN
Nice ❤️
people are watching "aMoNg uS hAcKeR nOt cLiCkBaIt" instead of this channel who says very useful and deep things, smh
sքɛɛċɦ աas engaging
That was a great a great job. As an Entertainment Journalist, I write Articles that benefits my industry.
This really has nothing to do with journalism…
This was really good I definitely agree with what she said.
Ga ada translate ke indonesia gitu.?🙄
The media needs to suffer more consequences for their actions and manipulations
she's incredible
She is a very good speaker. I just wish people seen racism is in every race not just one select race.
I'm no fan of Trump, but if you talk about staying objective, mentioning dates, quotes...you cannot immediately go and happily say "he is a bigot" without backing it up with dates and quotes. Want to roast him? Be my guest, but use facts, especially if you're preaching on journalism ethics.
You also talk about self reflection and self questioning, but you only seem to keep pushing your opinions. I may share them with you, but you're not doing them any favors.
You also speak about post-racial society, yet the first thing you mention about that high school crush is him being dark when it has nothing to do with the story. Awkward.
I hope we can all actually put in each other shoes. Stay safe.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaamen
Journalists ? i see only activists today no journalists

'We are our loved one's gatekeepers. We shouldn't lead them astray.' Wow, powerful words. A reminder to us to open our eyes and evaluate the news we hear before we accept it as absolute truth and pass it on. Nearly three years on but this Ted talk needs to blow up!
She is incredible, I believe that opening up your perspective in anyway is really powerful and makes humanity less of a disappointment. This is what we are never taught in school. I go to a public school with mainly hispanic students, so our perspectives are restricted in many ways. I see this first hand all the time when talking to my colleagues. Great video though, really powerful message.
I admire you girl,kudos👍👍👍👍
Excellent!!!
Great video!
