VERBALIZATION OF VALUE MOTIVATION OF THE MODERN RUSSIAN JOURNALIST’S PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY
The article examines the verbalization of the value dominants of the professional activity of two generations of modern Russian journalists.

The author argues that the sphere of journalists’ value self-identification becomes a ground for confrontation between social obligation and the profession.
