The media-now more powerful than ever before due to computer advances, cable television, and the internet-controls our opinions, tastes, and, as some would have us believe, our actions. \u003cbr\u003eBut has the media shed its ethics and gotten completely out of control? Has the quest to get the big scoop crippled the news media into believing \"first\" is better than factual? To whom is the media responsible-the public, the stockholders, the advertisers? Who decides what may \"harm\" an audience or what is unsuitable for children? Who, if anyone, should regulate the media? How do political agendas play into censorship (the FCC) and funding of the media? \u003cbr\u003eThese questions and more are probed in The Media and Morality, a wide-ranging selection of important essays that explores relationships between the media and its diverse audiences, its sponsors, stockholders, governments, and others. The authors attempt to define the obligations of the media in these relationships as well as the risks, benefits, and limits.\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to providing up-to-date commentary and opinion on the latest controversial and precedent-setting journalistic developments, this book will help readers toward an ethical analysis of the media in the Information Age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 393\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.97 x 8.98 x 6.05 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 1999\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52724213186867,"sku":"9781573926812","price":33.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/Z2VuYi9NYVdrdEMzcDE2c0lBdFIvdz09.webp?v=1763686755","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-media-morality-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
