Interpretative Journalism: Selected Ethical Issues Against the Background of Empirical Research

Summary/Abstract: Partiality and objectivity are key concepts in contemporary deontology of media workers. The subject of this paper is the problem of interpretive journalism, analyzed from an axiological perspective and considered against the background of empirical research. The thesis of the presented study is the position that the opinions of journalists may be biased, which depends on their subjective autonomy. The hypothesis put forward in the study concerns the relationship between bias and the value system represented by Polish journalists. The empirical research conducted in the printed press shows that the interpretation is included in most press materials: this applies to over 83% of journalistic materials in printed local press and 68% of journalistic materials in printed national press contain interpretations (The Journalistic Role Performance Project). The results of the described own research were compared with the data presented in the literature.
