The Journalist's Moral Compass: Basic Principles de Steven Knowlton

The Journalist's Moral Compass: Basic Principles

Autor Steven Knowlton, Patrick Parsons
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 noi 1993 – vârsta până la 17 ani
What basic ethical principles should guide American journalists to help them justify their invasion of an individual's privacy, to be objective in their reporting, to avoid being influenced by government or economic controls? A wire service and newsroom veteran and a sociologist and scholar in mass media/communications have designed a philosophical guide for students, scholars, and practitioners to use as a kind of moral compass. Key excerpts from some of the most important writings on the subject from Milton to Louis Brandeis, from Plato to Sissela Bok, and from Adam Smith to John Merrill deal with some of the most serious contemporary issues in journalism today. This short text also includes the Society of Professional Journalists' Code of Ethics and a full index.

Recenzii

This book does not claim to offer any simple solutions; rather, it is a succinct-yet exhaustive-attempt to introduce readers to the crucial issues from a historical perspective. . . . The editors' lucid introductions provide clarification. In an age of mass media characterized by a propensity for stooping to serve the lowest common denominator-given expression in such pseudojournalism as The National Enquirer and A Current Affair-- it is refreshing to rediscover the field's noble roots.
A valuable collection of readings that will put anyone in touch with thinking on ethics from John Milton to Karl Marx to James Gordon Bennett to A.J. Liebling. The richness of these sources is what gives the book its value. . . . The book is rich in seminal ideas, and is ideal for the student of ethics. And doesn't that include all of us?
An extremely helpful map of the journalism ethics territory.
[S]hould be a worthwhile addition to the library of most media ethics professors.
