Ethics as communication theory: Ed Murrow's legacy
Journal of Mass Media Ethics 3 (2):7 – 19 (1988)
| Abstract | Edward R. Murrow has often been mentioned as the model CBS newsman, a combination of integrity, common sense, sound news judgment, and good writing and delivery skills. Perhaps these qualities emerged from something beyond mere educational and technical competence; perhaps he had a ?theory?;, a larger view of the world and how things operate, or should operate. Murrow's early life is explored as origin of his theory and applications of his construct of ethics and integrity are discussed | |||||||||
