We all depend in many ways on accurate, timely news reporting, but
is the accuracy of news a given? And how much responsibility does a
journalist have for its accuracy?" " "Journalistic Ethics: Moral
Responsibility in the Media "examines the moral rights and
responsibilities of journalists to provide what Dale Jacquette
calls "truth telling in the public interest." With 31 case studies
from contemporary journalistic practice, the book demonstrates the
immediate practical implications of ethics for working journalists
as well as for those who read or watch the news. This case-study
approach is paired with a theoretical grounding, and issues include
freedom of the press, censorship and withholding sensitive
information for the greater public good, protection of confidential
sources, journalistic respect for privacy, objectivity, perspective
and bias, and editorial license and its obligations. This is a book
for anyone who now works in journalism, or is considering a career
as a journalist. It is also important groundwork for everyone who
follows the day's events in newspapers, radio, television, or on
the internet.
