I enjoyed Professor Newton's class though definitely not an easy A. You have to understand what is ethical and not get your opinion mixed up in your answers on exams. I would take another class with him to learn more, he is very kind.

Professor gives no slides to his lectures, he speaks fast but also mumbles so it's impossible to listen to anything what he's saying. His exams are online, which breaks the whole point of not being able to cheat and plagiarizing. Again, it is extremely difficult to know what he's talking about from the way he talks. We have no sense of progress in his class because he does not give us practice questions or homework... People probably like him because he gives free As but it's not as easy as it seems. If you're reading this, take my advice and DON'T take his class.

The worst class I have ever taken. His lectures are in mumbles. Talks too much about Trump. Exam questions are unclear. Avoid.

Professor Newton is brilliant in his field. I would highly recommend anyone wanting to pursue a career journalism to take his courses. He’s very professional and always more than willing to go the extra mile to ensure student success!

This is my first quarter taking a course with Professor Newton while also working with him on a different matter. He’s a great Professor who is knowledgable and willing to help students succeed. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone!

I really enjoyed this class! The Professor was incredibly knowledgeable, well-spoken, and interesting. Even though I had to take it at 9:30AM, I actually looked forward to this class. The readings are manageable. You are graded on the midterm and final, which was a little stressful due to time constraints - online long answer questions. But, he was a very reasonable grader. Participation is encouraged, but Prof Newton isn't really strict about it. One of my favorite classes I've taken at UCLA by far. Selling the course book at 50% discount! - Contact me at 925-475-9841

This professor is amazing! Highly recommend.

I loved this class! I can’t recommend Prof Newton enough, he is probably the kindest and most understanding professor I have had at UCLA. The class itself covered some interesting topics about ethics in journalism, and his lectures were always well put together and kept me engaged. He encouraged participation and would also ask follow up questions which were surprisingly great to get a discussion going and I actually ended up learning a lot from my classmates’ perspectives and opinions which is rare honestly. If you have an opportunity to take Prof Newton, definitely do it!! It’s an easy class but one that actually feels rewarding. One thing to note is that he lists a textbook on the syllabus and has chapters assigned for certain weeks but you don’t need the book at all and you’ll be fine just reading the articles he links on the syllabus.

Professor Newton is the best professor I've had at UCLA in my three years. He is incredibly engaging and really cares about his students and is willing to explain things again to them or meet in office hours whenever. I highly recommend taking this class. The course content is super interesting and relevant, definitely a class I'll take with me for years.

Also Professor Newton sounds like Tom Hanks. Haha.

Prof Newton is literally one of the kindest professors I've ever had! Super willing to help! Had some tech trouble getting lectures up on the site and tried very hard until he got it right and we could access the recordings, appreciated the dedication. Also had really great lectures that were easy to follow, midterm and final followed material covered in class!
