If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Journalism Ethics: Arguments and Cases for the 21st Century explores the major ethical dilemmas facing journalists in the digital age.

Engaging with both the theory and practice of journalism ethics, this text explains the key ethical concepts and dilemmas in journalism and provides an international range of examples and case studies, considering traditional and social media from a global perspective.

Journalism Ethics offers an introductory philosophical underpinning to ethics that traces the history of the freedom of expression from the time of Greek philosophers like Aristotle, through the French and American revolutions, to modern day.

Throughout the book Patching and Hirst examine ethically-challenging issues such as deception, trial by media, dealing with sources and privacy intrusion. They also explore continuing ethical fault lines around accuracy, bias, fairness and objectivity, chequebook journalism, the problems of the foreign correspondent, the conflicts between ethics and the law and between journalists and public relations consultants.

Concluding with a step-by-step guide to ethical thinking on the job, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students of journalism, media and communication.

Journalism Ethics: Arguments and Cases for the Twenty-first Century explores the major ethical dilemmas facing journalists in the digital age.

Throughout the book, Patching and Hirst examine ethically challenging issues such as deception, trial by media, dealing with sources and privacy intrusion. They also explore the continuing ethical fault lines around accuracy, bias, fairness and objectivity, chequebook journalism, the problems of the foreign correspondent, the conflicts between ethics and the law, and the conflicts between journalists and public relations consultants.

Concluding with a step-by-step guide to ethical thinking on the job, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students of journalism, media and communication.

Acknowledgements

The first two ethics texts we wrote had their genesis in the mid-1990s while we were teaching at Charles Sturt University in Bathurst, in the central west of New South Wales. We first collaborated on a training manual about law and ethics for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in 1996-1997. Our collaboration became friendship as we wrote our first book while working in tertiary journalism progammes in southeast Queensland in the early part of the twenty-first century.

The theoretical framework, especially the development of the concept of ethical fault lines, owes much to Martins 2003 doctorate, Grey Collar Journalism: The Social Relations of News Production. His recent research has centred on the development of freedom of expression through the ages. We have each also collaborated with colleagues in various ways on other publications. Our common interest also extends to Rogers PhD work on privacy invasion, which is also a rich influence on this book.

The first three chapters explore theoretical and historical references that inform many ethical aspects of journalism, while the remaining chapters look at everyday scenarios taken from media practice. Following our usual practice, Martin drafted the initial theoretical chapters. Roger produced a draft of the preface, the case studies, and the first drafts of the practice-based chapters. The closing chapter was a joint effort.

Positive student reactions, word of mouth and emails from colleagues encouraged us to update and further explore our ethical practice research.

The last Australian text devoted entirely to journalism ethics was written by us in 2007; since then many new cases have emerged, and so have new arguments. Our examples are all new, taken from yesterdays headlines. The cut-off date for developments in ongoing stories, with only minor exceptions, was April, 2013. But ethics is never static. As many of the stories continue to evolve, further ethical dilemmas may present themselves, giving rise to more opportunities for discussion and reflection.

Keeping abreast of the ever-changing ethical landscape of the media, both nationally and internationally, involves both of us in a daily routine of reading a number of newspapers, regular listening and watching of radio and TV respectively, as well as hours spent on the internet searching various media and ethics websites. For us, based in Australia, crikey.com has drawn our attention to many potential ethical dilemmas. The ABCs Radio Nationals Media Report and ABC-TVs Media Watch are essential listening and viewing respectively. Overseas, our research has been helped by the team of the Poynter Institute in the United States (www.poynter.org) and by those who report on the media in London for
