Moral of the current System of journalists

Abstract: The ethics of journalists are always fighting in public opinion and economic development at the forefront of the moral system is still fragile, still not perfect, in many cases also bear some of decadent ideas of market economy and the impact of negative factors, which the field of ethics of journalists there were many unsatisfactory areas. article from the opposite two of the professional ethics of journalists were discussed.

Keywords: journalists, ethical system
With the reform and opening up and modernization construction of the further development of commodity economy, market economy and deepening cultural exchange, a series of new ethical concepts, such as the effectiveness of the concept of contract concepts, self-awareness, and pragmatic spirit, democratic requirements, these reflect the requirements of the new era of moral concepts and the integration of traditional Chinese virtues, constitute our journalists a new moral system.

For journalists, the dedication is undoubtedly worthy of praise, but when the "News First" principle and the conflict between ethics and conflict, many journalists make choices in the decision often show different theories support and psychological and emotional. Kevin Carter <<hungry Sudan>> record of that most classic moment - a vulture waiting for prey, and that little girl is about to starve to death. Kevin Carter won because of this photo Pulitzer Prize, but also by the many accusations. A year later, Kevin Carter committed suicide. domestic similar news, there are many, Xiamen <<Southeast Express>> published by the rider in the rain falls in the continuous action photos. and many speculation and crime news celebrity sex scandal, which seems to reflect the professionalism of journalists, but in fact contrary to the basic requirements of professional ethics.


The contradiction between the true and the pseudo-2

As society increasingly fierce competition, impetuous s growing. More competitive in the case of the media, some reporters on the events hearsay, hearsay evidence, the lack of verification of the authenticity of the pragmatic style of news. In order to compete for eyeballs, for circulation, there tampering with the press and even fictional facts and bizarre news events, sensationalized, completely contrary to the facts of the professional ethics standards. there are some media, especially newspapers and websites irresponsible, non-compliance with the relevant provisions of the Advertising Law is published false advertising, uncivilized advertising, a commercial speculation, "accomplice", the tool business competition, resulting in extremely bad social impact.


3 battle between good and evil

Our forefathers, "choosing the good from it, instead of their bad." As a journalist, the first task is to use their hands to the hands of the media to punish evil and virtue, and to promote justice. But the reality is not. For example a few years ago condemned by the disclosure, reporting on the Russian hostage crisis in Beslan were the "hostage deaths prize quiz" activity, that is extreme contempt for the dignity of life, the suffering of the people as a game, inducing the audience guessing at the pleasure of deformity Fortunately, the establishment of their own misfortune of others on a one example, the media like this is indeed heinous.


4 cold and the warmth of the opposition

In recent years, some of China's media reported on human life, human dignity, the fact that show many examples of indifferent and cold, for example, workers jump from a building known as "jumping show," in 2003 from non-human angles reported in human milk banquet, on the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2005 reported some banter and so caused a widespread popular concern and challenge. We hope so "cold" state of mind not to become a universal unconscious, insensitive to erosion of some media workers conscience. reposted elsewhere in the Research Papers Download http://www.hi138.com 5 audience needs and balance of news value

The role of communicators in the news audience expectations, there is a fixed demand model, this demand is shown at times emotional, vulgar and decadent, it tends to ignore the meaning and value of information itself, but some journalists tend to cater to this demand, in order to achieve a sensational effect, so that the news value of the overwhelming needs of the audience. came into a large number of junk news, become severely polluted environment, the spirit of the dregs of society. phenomena hidden behind the nature of existence has its own any Origin. explore these phenomena exists, for many reasons.

The first is social impact. China is currently in social transition, rapid economic development, Western culture oncoming surge, loss of traditional moral standards of a certain control, surging in the new social trend. These are the moral system of the formation of journalists a strong impact, leading some journalists in the face of moral conflict, a dilemma, at a loss. in a market economy, the media pressure is unprecedented success in the market some of the media. gave many of those most eager big payoff, in order to achieve the maximization of economic benefits, some of the media chose to give top priority to economic interests, social responsibility on the second, resulting in the pursuit of economic efficiency journalists far more than social responsibility pursuit.

The second is professional spirit faded. Journalists, defenders of society, is the leader in the times is the "���絣����, Cherish the article" angel. Journalistic professionalism, its meaning is different from the political power of the media requirements, but also different from the behavior of the market economy requirements of the media, it is a service industry professional awareness, a series of norms and criteria. With the continuous deepening of reform, news media organizations in the gradual detachment from the party and government organs out, as an independent industry into the market. However, the media on the formation of the necessary norms of professionalism and career work inadequately prepared thoughts. For the media industry do not understand the basic professional standards, which occurred in practice, many involving professional conduct problem, which is more of the media presence of the background of the ethical issues.

The third is weak oversight mechanisms. At present, concerning a journalist working standards of professional ethics and existing Laws, regulations, administrative rules and regulations can be quite comprehensive, the vast majority of journalists who are clearly illegal and violations of the prohibited requirements. However, poor implementation and monitoring, mechanisms are not perfect, monitoring results to emerge. So, how do? do allow the proliferation of this phenomenon exist? the answer is no. We must build the self-regulatory mechanism at the core of journalists moral system.

<<Analects>> mentioned: "Gentlemen do not worry about the poor also worry Road", "Ji said it does not force, called Germany." Scholars of Renaissance Europe, where verapamil Erye said: "The real moral is designed to the behavior of the public interests. "characteristics of the media is the public nature of the largest, in essence, a news report on the requirements of public welfare, public interests, it is actually commissioned by the public to use public resources, and commitment to social responsibility is the appropriate media practitioners. Therefore, journalists construct an ethical system as well as for social progress in the development of journalism is important.

First, the standard measure of the performance of journalists to the transition from the economic to the social benefits.

Psychologist Maslow believes that human needs can be divided into physical, safety, social, and respect and self-actualization needs, and therefore completely change the view of the benefits of journalists, to be met for individual self-realization need to create a good environment for development. At present, to meet the needs of self-realization is to measure the economic benefits, and some media and even the amount of staff pulled ads as efficiency standards, artificially-effective concept of money as the leading journalists as to achieve self-value criteria. Thus, to change the current journalists, is the key to effective moral system the concept of change. This is the construction of scientific premise of the moral system is the objective-oriented factors.

Second, the professional ethics code of conduct to which he turned to self-regulation Law, the socialist concept of honor journalists to treat their own code of conduct and ethical standards. At present, China's Laws and regulations binding a large number of journalists, and these regulations system is the level of discipline for journalists to be bound, from a philosophical sense, the external is very important. but still play a decisive role of internal factors. Therefore, journalists should do ^ and make news together, within the ethics of science into their own code of conduct. for now in terms of the social requirements. is to believe in and practice of "Eight Honors and Eight Shames" as the content of the socialist concept of honor within them into their own code of conduct and ethical standards.

There important point is to establish a monitoring mechanism for the construction of moral systems to provide protection. For journalists working standards of professional ethics and the general supervision and control has 3 modes: audience control, third party control and peer control. Audience control is to improve the audience's appreciation of the aesthetic level and on the basis of journalists to form a more scientific public opinion environment, peer control means according to certain professional norms, mutual supervision among media practitioners, third-party control is to adopt Laws, regulations and other coercive means to monitor and control.
