Rights and Responsibilities of the Press
Welcome to the “Rights and Responsibilities of the Press” section. Here you will find the code of conduct which guides all of the Council’s examinations and adjudications. The guidelines it contains outline both the rights of media organizations and journalists as well as their responsibility to observe the professional and ethical standards of journalism in the information they choose to publish or broadcast.
To facilitate your search, the guidelines in this section have been grouped according to the main themes of the guide, or by most frequent motives for complaint.
 
The complete, printer friendly version of the guide is also available in this section in PDF format. |
