Abstract
Media, today, no doubt, symbolize and represent a major public forum in contemporary
societies. It is so, even more, because the topics that were until recently considered to be very
theoretical and closed only for the scientific community, currently are coming more and more into
the focus of interest of also the general public. Simultaneously, from the majority of topics covered
and reported by media, it can be singled out that the media very vividly present also the increased
sensitivity for problems that could be considered as bioethical. Thus, journalists – as well as holders
of other professions, may be responsible for the origin and rapid development of bioethics. All that
has previously occurred as a result of growing interest in science and technology, and it suggests
the birth of a new branch of journalism, journalism that is bioethically revived and which can play
a very important role in the popularization of bioethics. In this context, as journalism goes hand by
hand with ethics, also bioethics and media can be tangled and hold up one another. Hence, what we
need is a creation and training of generations of journalists with developed bioethical sensibility in
their reporting, and which can be formed through their bioethical education, in another words by
establishing and implementing of a syllabus for bioethical education of journalists.
