About this Quote
The quote by Roger Mudd talks to the altering ethical standards of editorial judgement in the television market throughout the late 1970s and 1980s. This time period saw the Carter and Reagan Administrations deregulate the television industry, which had a significant influence on the ethical standards of editorial judgement. This deregulation allowed for more freedom in the tv industry, which allowed for more imaginative expression and a broader series of content. However, it likewise meant that there were less limitations on what could be aired, which might lead to a decrease in ethical standards. This shift in ethical standards of editorial judgement was a result of the deregulation of the tv industry by the Carter and Reagan Administrations, and it had an enduring impact on the industry.
