The Upgraded Educational Model For The Journalists - Bioethical Journalism

Abstract

For today’s society, it is very important to develop and especially to have “good sound” democratically built media and journalism for which the process of education for them is crucial and at the same time have critical role and meaning. They can educate, but who and how educates them? From what standpoint, in which surroundings, and with what kind of worldview and quality and quantity of knowledge they can be educated and “informed” in the process of their personality building, so they can later educate others, the public? In the world of arising problems of common living bioethics emerged. The rapid technical-technological progress more than clearly set and emphasized the need for the so-called „new journalistic-bioethical integration process”, which requires appropriate education of the participants - future journalists, on these issues. At the same time analysis and discussions of bioethical issues in the media has become a tremendously important outlet for educating and increasing the bioethical consciousness of journalists. The model of permanent interaction was born in which journalists act in the role of bioethicists and bioethicists in the role of journalists. Bioethics has become a „higher degree of journalism” - a bioethical novelty that needs to be studied!
