Why Assume Journalism Has an Ethics?

Journalists have responsibilities because of their social role. Our society protects their freedom so that journalists can inform citizens in a responsible fashion. Every group that has significant influence on the public, like journalism, accrues certain duties. Power and impact entail social responsibilities, whether specific individuals accept them or not. | STORY
