What are ethics? Why does ethical journalism matter? How do ethics affect good journalism?

Ethics and Journalism provides a comprehensive overview of the main approaches to ethical enquiry in Western journalism. It examines the ethical dilemmas faced by journalists in all areas of the media and sets our ways of achieving ethical journalism.

Ethics and Journalism:

- Explores such subjects as: private lives and the public interest, relations to sources and coverage of death, disease and destruction

- Examines the role of regulation and self-regulation of the media industry

- Discusses strategies of good journalism

- Thoroughly examines the role of industry codes.

Ethics and Journalism is informed by interviews with top journalists and editors and is written in a clear and accessible style. It includes an exhaustive bibliography as well as an excellent list of relevant web-sites.

It will be essential reading for all journalism, media and politics students studying journalism and ethics, as well as for those who already work in the media and are interested in understanding ethical issues.

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Government communication is a curiously neglected area of discursive analysis. No considered examination of the subject exists which provides either an account of the contemporary governmental landscape or an explanation of the common and divergent themes on both a domestic and international basis. This volume aims to fill that gap, providing a concise and illuminating case-study based review of government communication. It will be divided into three sections to reflect differences in both geography and political allegiances, scrutinizing continental Europe, Anglo-American traditions and newly emerging democracies. Offering a global and thematic account, it is an indispensable resource for all students of political communication.

Taking political scandal as the entry point, this book presents a study of comparative political communication. It explores themes such as how and why journalists construct their scandal stories, what kind of narratives were told, the impact of political scandal, and what, if anything, this tells readers about the putative power of the press.
