Some new ideas for telling the truth supplementary texts from a journalism student....

-SBS television series "Fine Line"- excellent stuff about journalistic ethics. It's on Weds at 7.30. Your school may have copies.
-Cash for comment scandal involving Laws/Jones, plus the newest controversy in this case
-Lindy Chamberlain case
-Media Watch.... I know it has already been mentioned, but it really is good stuff
-Australian Press Council rulings http://www.presscouncil.org.au/ (go to Case Studies for the best ones)

If you search for articles there are a lot of good things on topics like embedded journalists, abc bias accusations, etc and all of these would make good related texts.

If you could get your hands on a course reader for a journalism degree you would find a lot of great related material...
