Howard Good is a professor at the State University of New York at New Paltz, where he teaches media ethics. Sandra L. Borden is a professor of communication at Western Michigan University. She co-directs the Center for the Study of Ethics in Society.
As modern media shift from the distribution of information to its creation, a fresh inquiry into the ethics of media is needed. This collection of 19 essays provides useful perspectives for both producers and consumers of entertainment. Topics include the creation of celebrity, the effects of entertainment on children, the hybridization of entertainment and news, author and intellectual property rights, and the role of human dignity in modern media, among many others.
