A problematic dual-loyalty is embedded in this list.

"5. A journalist is obsessed with the Truth."

and

"6. A journalist serves the people." which was expanded on with "In telling all sides of a story for the benefit of the proletariat alone"

Without getting too deeply into it, you can't serve the people and the truth any more than a democratic vote will always arrive at the best public policy. A bias toward "the people with little or no power or influence in this world" is still a bias and will be a diversion from the truth.
