"Provides updates that assure that the title remains one of the leading texts for journalism ethics. Provides clear, uncomplicated discussion of challenges facing journalists... Recommended." (Choice, August 2008)

The reputation of journalists is continually being questioned. Nearly every public opinion poll shows that people have lost respect for journalists and lost faith in the news media. In this fully updated and expanded 6th edition of Ethics in Journalism, author Ron F. Smith provides a highly readable introduction to journalism ethics, and offers solutions for the many ethical dilemmas facing journalists today.
  • Utilizes dozens of new case studies, mostly taken from everyday experiences of reporters at both large and smaller newspapers and TV stations
  • Explores the practical ethical issues involved in developing sources, coming to terms with objectivity, and bringing compassion to the pressures of journalism
  • Considers the impact of blogs and the internet on traditional values of journalism
  • Compares journalistic practices across different free societies
