Abstract
This analysis suggests that neither objectivity nor descriptive articulations of civic-public journalism provide the best normative frameworks for evaluating journalistic flag displays after September 11. The core ethical problem was that journalists displayed an oppressive, nationalistic patriotism resting on hegemonic assumptions that neither perspective adequately addresses. Journalists are encouraged to adopt communitarian journalism as the philosophical foundation for constructing an alternative patriotism rooted in a broadly human conception of the common good.
