Poynter Ethics Fellows (EFELL)
Poynter brings together a select group of outstanding journalists – sharp thinkers and gifted practitioners who are committed to excellent and ethical journalism. You will explore key
issues including the tensions between jour-nalism and business values, the challenges of covering an increasingly diverse society, and public concerns about invasion of privacy. We’ll anchor the sessions in the real-world issues of the newsroom, connecting ethics to craft and leadership. You will strengthen your ethical decision-making and develop techniques for effectively coaching ethics in your newsroom.
The Ethics Fellows will come to St. Petersburg for a week in March 2004 and four days in January 2005. In the interim, they will stay connected with one another and with Poynter faculty to discuss important ethics issues. Fellows may write articles or essays on ethics for Poynter Online and the Poynter Report.
