Turkish journalists are invited to participate in a six-week Turkish-language online course, entitled “Introduction to Ethics of Digital Journalism.”
Deadline to apply is September 24.
The course, which will run from October 1 to November 12, will discuss the ethical challenges digital journalists face, and provide guidelines and ethical decision-making models to help media practitioners make sense of this new universe of information.
Among the questions the course will tackle are:
• Do our readers on the web deserve the same standards of accuracy and fact-based reporting as print readers?
• Does online journalism require different standards?
• Breaking news is delivered to global audiences faster than ever, but how often are we getting it right?
• What happens to accuracy, verification and attribution when speed and competition become determining factors?
