Journalistic Discrimination Awareness Day (JDAD) May 4

Worldwide-Celebrated annually May 4, Journalistic Discrimination Awareness Day or JDAD raises awareness of and seeks to combat discrimination in news story reporting, namely discriminately reporting one equally as relevant news story over another depending on who the story provider is.
The day founder attests to inequality in news story reporting including media outlets refusing to report one often equally as relevant news story over another, depending on who is providing each story.  If it is a friend associate, etc., the story is most likely run, but if the story provider is an unknown-even if the story is relevant, factual, etc., certain outlets may not run the story, says JDAD founder. The founder also says, "news stations ask persons to submit news, but often are thinking discriminately about the stories they will run. As long as the story is not hate speech or similar, if it is relevant with all required  attached details (who, what, when, where) the story should be run.  It is good to raise awareness of this.
