Google Violates its Don't Be Evil Motto

Interview by Charlie Rose August 14, 2007

Jeff Jarvis argues, “The problem with much of that so-called social-media work is that the goal is still to drive traffic back to the media site … If we instead judge our value on how well we inform people and how much we help them solve their problems and meet their goals, then we will go to wherever they are and use the tools at hand to deliver value the best way we can.”

 Jeff Jarvis argues, “Twitter has also been crucial to amplifying the voices of activists, providing a platform for experiences of violence and oppression that conventional media would ignore.”

Jeff Jarvis is of the view that “almost all of what we do online is valuable and enjoyable but there are always things we can do to improve the experience and act more responsibly.”

Jeff Jarvis argues, “I am hopeful that Facebook’s effort to encourage ‘meaningful interactions’ could lead to greater civility in our conversations, which society desperately needs.”

Jeff Jarvis argues that the internet enables people to communicate directly to each other. 

“The News Integrity Initiative will be run as an independent project by the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism under the auspices of the School’s Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism, whose director is Professor Jeff Jarvis.”
