My list of three things that I think journalists should never do from the top 100 list in the article by Poynter Online posted by Julie Moos, are first getting out of the house, there are story's everywhere and you can't get the story if you are always sitting at home behind your computer. You can't be a active member of the community if you are not out there getting the story.
The second thing that journalists should never do from the Pounter article is never stop learning. I think this is a good one because it is true that even taking 10 mins a day to try to learn something new or getting perfect at something you already know will help you in so many areas. I found a article that talks about learning new stuff everyday.
The third and final thing on the Poynter list is my favorite "Journalists should follow the facts where they lead, especially if that's somewhere unexpected & uncomfortable." I think this is a good one because it is very true. You have to follow facts even if it is something that you dont want to see, if it is a good story with great undiscovered facts, that you really need to follow it and get the story.
