There is a great amount of diversity in journalism from who works in the field and what is reported on. This creates a large amount of learning and responsibility for journalist to know the correct terms and customs so they do not offend anyone in their stories. Although, it is extremely important that all cultures and communities are respected and represented. This sometimes creates a challenge because it could result in a large amount of research and time. Also some terms are subject to whom you are talking with or the group you are talking about, but sometimes it could be offensive to ask. This is a lot on a journalist shoulders when they are not a part of or familiar that community.
