To maintain the integrity of journalistic works there are globally acknowledged guiding principles and code of ethics that govern the conduct of journalists at work. These codes generally revolve around the following concerns: truthfulness, independence, and minimize harm. Lately, the questions of transparency and community have also been added to the list. While the course begins with introducing these codes and ethical frameworks, it is not focused on telling right from wrong, rather aims at providing students with conceptual tools and past examples so they are better prepared to make the difficult ethical decision on the ground. In so doing, the course also discusses the structural conditions — corporate, governmental and editorial interest — that influence, often constrain journalistic work and visual integrity.
