Part I: A Foundation for Making Ethical Decisions

1 Why Ethics Matters in Journalism

Our society needs news professionals who do the right thing

Contemporary journalists are keenly aware of the ethics of the profession, dealing frequently with ethics questions.

Discussing case studies in class is crucial to learning the decision-making process.

The digital era, which has radically changed the way the news is gathered and delivered, has provoked controversy over whether ethics should radically change as well.

Confronted with a daily deluge of information, the public depends on ethical journalists for news that can be trusted.
