Question

List the principles that are usually included in the media code of ethics

Answer 1

Answer:

The code of ethics in media was created by the Hutchins Commission in 1947 and the first principle lists out that "whoever enjoys a special measure of freedom, like a professional journalist, has an obligation to society to use their freedoms and powers responsibly."

Further to it, the second guideline states that "society's welfare is paramount, more important than individual careers or even individual rights."

This way, it aims to hold people responsible who are sitting in high positions so that their actions remain professional and that they do not abuse their power.
