1. Identify one of the ethical principles associated with the media that you think is more important than some of the others. I don't want to say it has to be the most important because sometimes that leads students to taking too long to pick which one is "most important." Just pick on you think is important.
2. Once you know the ethical principle you would like to talk about, compose your initial discussion post. It should include the principle, a sourced-definition of it, and your reasons why it is important. Then, the final part of your initial post is to provide an example of this ethical principle "at work." By "at work" I mean where you can see the ethical principle was challenged and a journalist or communicator had to make a decision. Provide as many details about your example as you can.
