Abstract
Journalists all across the world regularly violate journalistic ethics, which
has a detrimental effect on societal peace and order. Due to unrestricted and
independent media, there is a serious problem with journalists misreporting, making up
news, inventing facts, and revealing improper material. The frequency, probable
causes, and effects of this situation are all covered in detail in this chapter, along with
international instances of poor journalism. There are also some recommendations in
this chapter for addressing this problem at the individual and organizational levels.
