Explains the basic tenants of the profession, provides some historical context and details on how it is being practiced today for prospective journalists. This introduction to journalism explains the basic tenets of the profession, provides some historical context and uses primarily recent examples to inform prospective journalists and those who simply want to become better informed. As a professional journalist, I approached this project as I do my other work, starting with research and then synthesizing the information into this online textbook. It is intended to be an interactive guide to engage students and not a comprehensive history of the profession, which is why there are lists of suggested readings on themes found in the chapters. Though the material focuses mainly on journalism in the United States, I examine how it is practiced in other countries and share information about restrictions and challenges journalists face around the world. Most discussion questions are given for participation points only, to encourage students to think critically about a particular issue they may have never considered, or give them an opportunity to try something new without penalty.

Media Ethics at Work | SAGE Publications Inc The deaths of Diana, Princess of Wales, Dodi al-Fayed and their driver in August tragically highlighted the way such figures are often hounded by the news media to the extent that they can have little privacy or peace regarding even the most intimate aspects of their lives. It may be thought that such media intrusion is far from justifiable. If, however, there is a link between the two, as Archard suggests, then the media attention devoted to the lives of the royals and celebrities is morally justifiable even though we may rightfully deplore the form such intrusion may take in a particular case. Cram argues that, given a lack of political will to institute a direct right of privacy, enforceable by the courts, it is worth paying greater attention to the nonlegal forms of privacy protection provided by regulators and current codes of media practice. Importantly, Cram goes on to consider how the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms could, if incorporated into domestic law, provide the most substantial means by which to protect privacy. They go on to examine the likely effectiveness of increasing legal restrictions and the costs and benefits of self- xiv Matthew Kieran regulation. Especially when gossip comes to be seen to constitute news as such, the problem arises as to the forms of redress ordinary people, unable to avail themselves of the legal and regulatory avenues open to those better off, have open to them when their privacy and lives have been abused by the press. Nigel Warburton switches focus to ethical problems arising from the nature of the photographic medium. Many people are worried about the ethical problems which new media technology seems to raise. For example, the possibility of creating flawless images may undermine the trust we place in photojournalism as bearing faithful witness to an event as it happened. What it does show, however, is that news photographers must retain a commitment to retaining the causal link from the resulting image back to the originating event. For the point of photojournalism is to retain a link to the actual world so that we can understand what was true of an actual event. These worries basically amount to three claims. Namely, that it cultivates in viewers, falsely, the assumption that how things are depicted is, in fact, the way things must be. Secondly, that television indulges a fantastical, morally dubious form of escapism. Thirdly, that as a medium television precludes the use of our imagination. But, Carroll argues, these worries turn out to be unfounded. Essentially, they fail to take account of the complex ways in which we understand and respond to television, or rely on an overly simplistic view of the nature of our emotions. Thus, Carroll concludes, the television medium or image is not inherently immoral though we may nonetheless have worries about the content of certain programmes. The premiss that watching such programmes will cultivate a tendency to be violent is, Graham argues, highly debatable for all but a very few. Moreover, even were harm to result from such programmes, this would not legitimate censorship. After all, we know that allowing cars on the road will directly lead to the deaths of a number of individuals each year. But the freedoms at stake are more important than the resultant harm. The interesting point about reports or films which make gratuitous use of violent or sexual imagery, Graham argues, is their failure to engage our interest in order to deepen our understanding. Thus we should, perhaps, ask why it is that our artistic and journalistic communities are failing us. Introduction xv The last article in the collection, by Anthony Ellis, follows on to address arguments over censorship and the media. Obviously freedom of speech is valuable and ought to be protected, to some extent, against government interference given the primary importance of individual freedom. Ultimately, he argues, the harm involved in such restrictions is so great that even proven harm resulting from free speech should not be prohibited unless it is of a very high degree. But Ellis also goes on to consider whether not just harm but offence can constitute grounds for prohibition. Yet the notion of offence is intrinsically tied to morality. Given this link, at least within a liberal framework, offence cannot constitute sufficient grounds for censorship because the liberal state has no business in legislating for morality. Indeed, deeply held beliefs and moral convictions often need to be attacked. Legislation to protect the feelings of those who cherish certain beliefs is, at best, mistaken, and at worst, deeply pernicious.
