The paper projects how journalism can inculcate values in the students of 21stcentury when the excessively materialistic life has made us all forget these values. It focuses on the different ethical values like Authenticity, Impartiality, Humanity, Acceptance of Fault and Answerability.Authenticitymeans getting the facts right and ensuring that they are correct.Impartialitymeans that a journalist should not be partial towards the political and influential people.Humanityis the awareness of the impact of words and images on the lives of people. A journalist should make sure that the news does not affect the people.Acceptance of Faultmeans that a journalist should accept if he commits some errors and correct them. Moreover, a journalist should be able to satisfy the queries of the audience, this is calledAnswerability. It is the Ethical Journalism only, which can control and mark the end ofYellow Journalism. Yellow Journalism is that which is not based on truth, facts, real news and events. It presents trivial news and uses eye-catching headlines to sell more and more newspapers. The future of journalism depends on how well the students master the essential values of journalistic integrity and ethics. Therefore, Value-Based Journalism should be taught in all the universities, so that the students today learn and inculcate these values and practise them not only in their profession and at workplace but in their day to day lives also.

This article treats the links between the 1890s literature of urban reform in the United States, which focused on the downtown "other half" of New York, and the war literature of 1898, when American troops intervened in Cuba's war of independence. The article focuses on the work of Stephen Crane, who worked as a New York police reporter, slum novelist, and Cuba war correspondent in this turbulent decade. Leary shows how, in the martial culture of the American 1890s, the rhetoric of militarism informed the practice of urban reform, while the rhetoric of urban reform informed the military campaign in Cuba. This article argues that the United States' urban underdevelopment, represented famously by the Lower East Side of Manhattan, was imaginatively displaced onto Cuba. The War of 1898 was therefore an important landmark in the creation of a Third World imaginary in the United States, when "underdevelopment" would become a distinctly Latin American condition. In the twentieth century, the gap between modernity and underdevelopment would not be found in the sprawling tenement cities, but in "other Americas" to the south, below the Mason-Dixon line and in Cuba. After 1898, Cuba, once so close to the United States as to be nearly a state in the union, now belonged to another time—indeed, almost another world.
