Abstract
This article argues that, despite scepticism and many obstacles, a global media ethics can be realised to a significant degree. It can become a much needed and influential guide for responsible journalism in a global media world. After defining the term ‘global media ethics’, the paper provides a conception of the goals and structure of a plausible global media ethic. It concludes on a practical note, proposing a number of ways in which the project of global media ethics can be advanced so as to become a dominant approach to media ethics.Keywords
