Fifty-nine percent of the adults surveyed say journalists should only be allowed to keep news sources confidential if revealing the source's name would put the person in danger. The forums will include an open and effective exchange of ideas and information between local electronic news practitioners and their audiences. The project also will develop new training materials including a written in-newsroom ethics curriculum and example story tape to be used for newsroom discussion of ethical issues. The foundation's work is supported by contributions from foundations, corporations and members of the Radio-Television News Directors Association. Download the full report.
