This is an essential book about a profoundly important subject published at a critical time. The New Ethics of Journalism: Principles for the 21st Century focuses intensely on the role that journalism plays in our society, a role that remains urgent and unique even as so much changes in the profession and in the business of journalism, as well as in our global society. --Bob Steele, Distinguished Professor of Journalism Ethics at DePauw University and Director of The Janet Prindle Institute for Ethics -- Bob Steele Bob Steele 20130711
