"Buried in the messages between National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, and other cabinet members is a horrible demonstration of narrative engineering.
"While the legacy media fixates on ‘classified information’, the real story is actually not the incompetence of these people but instead how they casually discussed spinning the bombing of Yemen—an already battered and famine-ravaged nation—into a palatable story for the American and global public. Let’s have a look":

There are six different sources of power: Coercive, Reward, Legitimate, Referent, Expert and Informational.
But power gained from Expert and Informational are the only legitimate sources of power that stands the test of time and legal court.
Professionalism, in its genuine form, is the process of compiling and affirming your sources of experts and information.

Wilkinson v Channel Ten is a great reminder about the critical important of professionalism and journalism.
Because when a stakeholder tries to ‘throw you under the (legal/corporate/political) bus’ the only thing that will save you is your professionalism and conduct.

The GuardianI'm rereading Going Pro by Steven Pressfield. It's one of those slim little books I always find both entertaining and insightful.
"All addictions share, among others, two primary qualities.
1. They embody repetition without progress.
2. They produce incapacity as a payoff."

Controversial video posted online embroils two NSW nurses over alleged antisemitism: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-12/nsw-health-minister-on-online-doctor-veifer-video/104926206
A great reminder about the value of the Hippocratic-esque oaths and value statements that reflect ‘Universal human rights’, in the health system.
And a disappointing lack of charismatic leadership from Political and Administrative leaders.
It’s easy to express ‘disgust, horror, shock, etc’. Somehow it’s ‘hard’ for leaders to talk about universal rights and why it matters.

ABC NewsToday, I had another one of these moments. Two weeks ago I had a unfriendly, essentially #passiveaggressive exchange with a #colleague & felt annoyed. I couldn't catch her, so the #conflict lingered. Exhausting. Then I see her #office door open today. But: the feeling that I don't want to deal with the conflict, just want to duck away. Alas, I take the step and knock on her door. We have a chat & clear the air. It's always worth it, so why is it #scary every time? #professionalism #astrodon
If there isn’t, make sure to formally record your disagreement to avoid repercussions—or, if necessary, find a job that values professionalism.

I like how some people make broad generalizations for an entire discipline based only on their experience in specific application domains within the discipline.
Just completed a course on:
> Introduction to #ResearchIntegrity
It was interesting to see things spelled out and hear a multitude of views. A lot of it boils down to 'common sense'.
Really it covers, what I consider the idea of research integrity to be a small fraction of:
Mind research is only one aspect of our job. We have Citizenship and Teaching duties as well. At least according to my workload mode ;-)
The core principles given in the course, and the advice surrounding them, of:
+ honesty;
+ rigour;
+ transparency & open comms;
+ care & respect;
+ accountability
Apply equally to my citizenship and teaching duties.
Pro tip: Don't eat mutton biryani before meeting. 
Also, how do you like this godawful thumbnail I put together on my phone using an outdated Photoshop APK, a screengrab of the stream, an old selfie, and a couple of online "png text generator" fonts? Yay for #professionalism!
Between 2023, October 7 and November 24, the New York Times had described Israeli deaths as a “massacre” on 53 occasions and those of Palestinians just once.
In November 2023, the journalists were distributed directives to avoid the terms “genocide”, “ethnic cleansing”, “occupied territory”. The memo instructs reporters not to use the word Palestine “except in very rare cases” and to steer clear of the term “refugee camps” to describe areas of Gaza historically settled by displaced Palestinians expelled from other parts of Palestine during previous Israeli–Arab wars. The areas are recognized by the United Nations as refugee camps and house hundreds of thousands of registered refugees.

An internal style memo from New York Times editors…
The Intercept'It takes a critical eye to understand how reporting can be used to frame events, especially in the Middle East. As most pieces of journalism don’t receive as much scrutiny as “Screams Without Words,” it is our hope that the detailed analysis here offers the reader some tools they can apply to any media they consume.'

“#Professionalism was also the vaguest #competency on the list. The 1999 definition characterized professionalism as “a commitment to carrying out professional responsibilities, adherence to ethical principles and sensitivity to a diverse patient population.” #Doctors were also expected to demonstrate an array of attributes in every interaction, including compassion, respect, humility, integrity, accountability.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/19/health/medical-students-professionalism.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare “As a result, #professionalism exists at two levels, as both a lofty standard of behavior and a (sometimes literal) list of dos and don’ts that blur #ethics and appearance. That second meaning can prove particularly pernicious to #residents of color, said Dr. Adaira Landry, an adviser at Harvard Medical School and co-author on a recent journal article on the “overpolicing” of #BlackResidents.”
Since its inception, this murky term has straddled…
The New York TimesBen Smith writes about journalism and NYT:
"The Times turned over crucial elements of its reporting on one of the most difficult and sensitive stories it has ever published to amateurs, one of whose social media posts would make reasonable people question her ability to be fair.
"That sounds insane when you say it out loud. Why would you do that?"
"Institutions of all sorts are struggling to win trust in this kaleidoscopic, networked world. If you can’t do the painstaking work of presenting an incontestable truth with absolute confidence, the alternative is humility and an openness to multiple points of view."
