Obowiązek zachowania szczególnej staranności i rzetelności przy zbieraniu i wykorzystaniu materiałów prasowych a profesjonalizm dziennikarski
The obligation of due care and accuracy in the collection and use of press releases with regard to journalistic professionalization

Summary/Abstract: Press law requires that only the truth is presented to the public. However, the law does not apply to journalists. A journalist’s responsibilities are defined by the rules and not the results of their actions; results might only be characterized by reliability and accuracy. This apparent dissonance is strongly associated with normative issues of professionalism and broader journalistic culture. The author indicates that the proper assessment of journalistic publications is possible only when taking into account the process of collecting and editing news, not the publication itself. Standards and norms of professional journalism are crucial in this case.
