Journalism, an ethical profession is a manual for reflection that addresses the challenges faced by journalists today, especially from the ethical point of view. The lack of journalistic ethics in the exercise of the profession is becoming more and more evident every day, and consequently, citizens are already distrusting the work of journalists. For this reason, it is important that we reflect on whether that code of ethics elaborated by Walter Williams is still valid today, when many journalists, due to political, economic or any other kind of pressure, have moved away from respecting ethical standards.
