<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Faculty member Bill Reader teamed up with Steven Knowlton of Dublin City University in Ireland to produce the second edition of "Moral Reasoning for Journalists" (Praeger, 2008). The book, which has just been published, is unusual in that it focuses not on media ethics broadly, but just on the ethics of journalism, and it is intended both for students and professors of journalism as well as for working professionals.</p>

<p>
The book has two parts: The first is a brief overview of the philosophical underpinnings of journalism ethics in Western democracies, as well as a discussion of the core moral principles of journalism ethics and an easy-to-use procedure for making sound ethical choices on deadline.</p>

<p>
The second part includes more than two dozen case studies from around the world that examine the complexities of making moral choices in the big tent of professional journalism. The book is available online from the publisher.</p>
