Abstract

The mixed media, comprising of mainstream newspapers and electronic media along with ‘new media’ of on-line reporters, reporting is rapidly developing. Enormous technological and economic changes have propelled the substantial progress in journalism. Such developments also require ethical framework for operation like any other media. The paper looks into Bangladeshi online news media's ethical and moral standards. Over the past five-six years, the total use of online news media has risen in Bangladesh. The modern form of journalism provides readers the platform of pace, interactive elements, audiovisual presentation and so much more. The study found that a very limited number of online news media operating in Bangladesh follow ethical standards. In many ways, this news medium violated the ethical standards. This study shows the ethics and standards in the presentation of news, coverage style and views and the information they give is imprecise in accurate and quite often stereotyped.
