“When you a starting to write that everyone likes, you cut being a journalist. You gonna starting to work in show business.”

Frank Miller junior

Ethics is a person’s inside moral principles. Also ethics teaches us evaluate every situation that happen with us and make right things, acts.

This is one example from local newspaper. One woman from Kraznodar region killed her alcoholic husband. The reason that took her for murder was that her husband sold their cow on a bottle of vodka. The cow was only one source for their living. The local people stand for protection this woman. They wrote many letters to court for not to punish the woman. The author of this article in newspaper also stands for this woman and her children. The journalist described how her children help her, also journalist showed the pictures of family: large shot of husband, murderer and their children. How it is ethical to attitude for children? Their mother with great desire gives interview, and allows taking a picture. It is her choice, but it is interesting why journalist did not explained to her children what consequences will be after the publication of this article to the whole country about the story that happen in their family? Is it ethical? Is this journalist took permission for making pictures and writing real names in publication?

In this case journalist behaved unethically. For making right and suitable acts every journalists should follow the rules and keep ethical norms. The code of ethics is necessary and useful. But we shouldn’t forget that this rules died if we don’t follow theme in practice, in real life, when we are making decisions. This is a list of code of ethics that can be suitable and can be most acceptable in Kazakhstan.

- Honest relation. Never put into delusion your readers and audience. Make everything clear and acceptable to read and to watch. For example, be honest; never say to someone that you want ‘just take picture for recollection’ or ‘to speak not for publication’. If after that you want to use someone’s words and pictures.

As author of the report you should performed as journalist, and not as a PR-agent.

Don’t pay for interview. Because after that it is difficult to say that this person speaks true. If you didn’t give him money, will he speak so?<!–[if !supportLists]–>- <!–[endif]–>If you made mistakes, don’t afraid to confess about it.

Journalists should protect condition of his source of information to being unknown, if source wants so.<!–[if !supportLists.

Confidentiality. Journalists will not use trust of the people for achieving his aims.

Journalist carries civil, moral, and in some cases criminal responsibility of his publication and reports.

The information that journalists give should be clear, precise, tested and receive independently from first hand.
