Download or read book Professional Communication Ethics written by Matthew Reavy and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During more than a decade working in public relations, marketing, and journalism, the author encountered many ethical problems; people often differed about what constituted “right” action. As a professor, he was motivated to write a succinct book on mass communication ethics that includes sufficient background for readers to learn to reason through problems ethically and to make decisions that consider the needs of all parties affected by the consequences of actions taken. The constant stream of information, misinformation, and images from rapidly evolving technology and social media platforms challenge media professionals to assess problematic issues and their effects on audiences. Ethical concerns mount regarding accuracy, fairness, loyalty, diversity, manipulation, and deception. Reavy’s highly accessible work discusses the philosophical foundations of ethics, examines the strengths and weaknesses of formal ethical codes, analyzes models for making ethical decisions, and provides examples from multiple communication professions. It introduces practical, systematic processes to guide consumers in addressing ethical dilemmas in increasingly complex situations. The emphasis is on reasoning—from defining the problem to identifying who is involved to ascertaining conflicting values to applying ethical principles to reaching a decision. The six applied chapters that look at issues (public interest, truth, conflicts of interest, privacy, confidentiality, and visual ethics) conclude with a case study.

Download or read book Ethical Issues in the Communication Process written by J. Vernon Jensen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rapid and widespread growth of interest in applied ethics is occurring today not only in the United States, but around the world as well. Academia both reflects this and is a leader in the movement. The field of speech communication shares in this increased sensitivity to ethical concerns. Students and the general public are looking for thoughtful analyses and guidance in all areas of communication. Ethical concerns relative to mass communication have been the subject of a number of books, but only a very few cover the entire scope of communication to include interpersonal, intercultural, organizational, small groups, and public speaking. This book tries to fill that need by discussing ethical concerns as they emerge in the areas of the communication process -- the communicator, the message, the media, the audience, and the situation. The speech communication field now has a need to digest and synthesize the existing research findings and the general literature in the field and in related humanities and social science works into a coherent and nontechnical discussion. This volume explores the most up-to-date materials to provide just such a synthesis. An extensive bibliography at the end of the book gives readers the sources on which the book is based, and offers ample avenues for further personal exploration. The book should provide meaningful food for thought as readers grapple conscientiously with the many everyday decisions made in communication transactions, and in evaluating the communication of others.
