Abstract
Building on the reflective and questioning approach of the author's acclaimed Journalism: Principles and Practice , this book discusses journalists' personal anecdotes alongside relevant critical studies by academics. Informed by new research and the author's own experience within mainstream and alternative journalism, The Ethical Journalist addresses topics such as trust, the public interest, deception, news values, source relationships, crime reporting, regulation and the Hutton inquiry. This exciting new title discusses ethics as fundamental rather than as a set of problems or an added extra, and it should become essential reading for everyone interested in journalism.
