AMS 2013 – Session 2
Day 1 – Wednesday, 29th May, 1600 – 1730
Session 2: Dealing with Ethics: Are Existing Models Effective?
As audiences become more demanding and discriminating, broadcast organizations will need to pursue a healthier mechanism to deal with ethical complaints and violations. Existing models include state regulation, self-regulation and co-regulation. Are they still valid and effective? Are codes of ethics making sense to promote professionalism? Do we need a more robust organization to enforce media ethics? Is there a role for the state in a self-regulatory system? What is a better alternative?
