Lucie Cheng maintained the following three aspects have characterized journalists: (1) reflection, criticism, and social practice; (2) combining academic knowledge with learning skills, morality with intelligence, as well as hands and minds working together; and (3) praxis in grassroot movements and rebuilding of our society. Lucie Cheng believed that communication education should be designed to do more than cultivate a new generation of journalists. This study focused on the relationship between communication education, the news media, and the people in power. Media courses offered in Shih Hsin University treat communication as a core value. The university criticizes the stigmas of minorities represented in the mainstream media, gender, race, class, and age. These courses function to reform media to empower journalists to communicate through an alternative media in order to promote diverse voices as well as realize social democracy.
