Breitbart co-founder Steve Bannon will be taking a position as an ethics professor at the Cronkite School for the 2017-2018 school year.

Breitbart co-founder Steve Bannon spoke to students and faculty about journalism ethics at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism’s Must See Monday event earlier this week.

The highly-regarded executive also announced that Breitbart just hired a new executive editor. Bannon would not reveal a photo of the editor but said the man went by the pen name of Ronald Lump.

“Ethics are a big deal. You don’t want to be fake news like PBS. You don’t want to be wrong,” Bannon said, emphasizing the word “wrong.”

Bannon told students it was important to be fair and accurate in reporting, at least when others are paying attention.

“During this election season, other papers did not adhere to journalism ethics like we did,” Bannon said. “It’s always important to report with an unbiased perspective and to make sure you get all the facts for both sides of the story.”

Many students left the Must See Monday with a new perspective on journalism ethics. Senior Eileen Wright said she now agrees with everything Bannon said about verifying information before reporting it detailed in the Breitbart Code of Ethics.

“Once I tried to Google ‘Breitbart ethics’ and got an error 401 page,” Wright said, “So the reason I came to the Must See Monday was to get the answers I’ve been looking for.”

Incoming freshman India Pendent said she agrees. “Breitbart has really interesting ethics,” she said. “I never knew fact-checking was an optional concept.”

Also attending Must See Monday was surprise guest and new White House Press Correspondent Sean Spicy. Students asked Spicy various ethics-related questions during the Q&A portion of the presentation, but Spicy refused to comment.

Still, Spicy was optimistic. “It’s going to be great,” he said. “I can’t wait for students to win a Pulitzer by following the Breitbart Code of Ethics.”

At the end of the night, Bannon announced he would be taking a position as an ethics professor at the Cronkite School.
