Bloggers Code of Ethics
In the recent New York Times article The Latest Rumbling in the Blogosphere: Questions About Ethics, Adam Cohen writes about how Bloggers are gaining credibility and perhaps should be held to the same standards as other journalists.
As he says:
"Every mainstream news organization has its own sets of ethics rules, but all of them agree broadly on what constitutes ethical journalism."
as opposed to
"in the world of bloggers, where few rules apply"
ETHICS-SMETHICS
We don't need no stinking code of ethics!
Ethics ALWAYS apply, and drafting a set of rules will not stop the unethical!
Do criminals heed laws?
Nice article by the way.
