Journalism Ethics and Regulation by Chris Frost

Journalism Ethics and Regulation by Chris Frost

Technology, and the democratising of news gathering, continue to change traditional journalistic practice making the path through ethical and regulatory frameworks tough to negotiate. As high-profile celebrity cases such as Max Mosley's vividly illustrate, conflicts between the law, ethics and the public’s right and desire to be informed are not easily resolved.

This comprehensive volume addresses the ethical considerations, dilemmas and challenges the practising journalist faces, each minute, every day. Providing context and practical advice, it explores an area of crucial importance for the 21st century, thoroughly equipping the reader with the information and tools to negotiate this challenging area knowledgeably, practically and responsibly.

This book has been written for students and trainee journalists, working journalists and editors, and indeed for any student of the media.

Chris Frost is Professor and Head of Journalism at Liverpool John Moores University. Before moving into teaching, he worked in newspapers for more than twenty years as a journalist and editor. He is also the author of Reporting for Journalists and Designing for Newspapers and Magazines, a former president of the National Union of Journalists, and chairs the NUJ's Ethics Council.
