ETHICS AND AESTHETICS IN INTERNET JOURNALISM
Keywords:
internet journalism, ethics, aesthetics, bloggers, information quality, manipulation, journalistic standards.Abstract
This article analyzes the violation of ethics and aesthetic standards in Internet journalism, especially bloggers' damage to professional journalism. The expansion and rapidity of Internet information sources has brought journalism to a new level, but at the same time, it has also created ethical and aesthetic problems. Some bloggers and Internet journalists are creating materials that are not based on facts and are focused on sensationalism, causing the formation of misconceptions in society. Also, non-observance of language norms, use of rude expressions and use of manipulative methods lead to lowering the reputation of journalism. The article discusses the consequences of these problems and ways to solve them.
