Abstract

The role of the means of social communication in social and religious life is increasing. This is clearly shown by the pandemic situation. The author has undertaken an analysis of the canonical norms of CIC / 83 regulating the presence of clergy in radio and television broadcasts. The analysis focuses on their respecting the deposit of the Catholic faith. The norms of the universal Church and of particular Churches in Poland do not differ in their meaning and content. However, their ethical optics are aimed at disciplining media participants (while fully approving of the pastoral role of the media) and advising them to be cautious based on the virtue of prudence. It is important that the clergy expressing their views and opinions in public or participating in broadcasts and commercial programs have adequate knowledge and preparation, but most importantly that they are guided by prudence.
