註釋
Certain films seem to encapsulate perfectly the often abstract ethical situations that confront the media, from truth-telling and sensationalism to corporate control and social responsibility. Using these movies—including
Ace in the Hole
,
All the President's Men
,
Network
, and
Twelve Angry Men
—as texts, authors Howard Good and Michael Dillon demonstrate that, when properly framed and contextualized, movies can be a powerful lens through which to examine media practices.
Moreover, cinema can present human moral conduct for evaluation and analysis more effectively than a traditional case study can. By presenting ethical dilemmas and theories within a dramatic framework,
Media Ethics Goes to the Movies
offers a unique perspective on what it means for media professionals to be both technically competent and morally informed.
