Pope Francis told journalists on Saturday that their profession has a great responsibility, the foundation of which should be humility.
“Humility is an essential virtue for spiritual life, but I would say that it can also be a fundamental element of your profession,” the Pope said on May 18.
He affirmed that there are other important qualities of a journalist, such as professionalism, writing skill, and ability to investigate and ask the right questions, but added that “still, humility can be the cornerstone of your activity.”
