A complete program of the fundamentals of journalistic ethics and its application in the new scenarios that the use of the Internet, especially the networks, have determined" 

Photojournalistic ethics constitutes, within the science of communication, a complex field of great interest for specialists and citizens. The limits of the image are not as well studied as the written ones, which is why, throughout history, confrontations have always arisen on this subject.

With the advent of the Internet, it is almost impossible to control the flow of photographs and the so-called "citizen witness" has free hand to publish any image.

Therefore, determining the limits that an informative image should not exceed requires an analysis of the values of the individual and of society, and it is important to assess the extent to which information takes precedence.

In this module, photojournalistic ethics are approached from different perspectives through real cases. This will make it possible to differentiate between various debates: the manipulation of the image, the rights of the individual and the sensitivity of the viewer.

Clarifying certain expert positions on the most controversial subjects helps to build up an idea of what is or is not allowed in photographs that deal with children, immigrants or situations of humanitarian crisis or conflict.

Discovering the cases of editing and intentionality in taking photos conforms a scheme of data that helps to better position oneself within a field that does not have stipulated norms. In addition, the presence of cases that overcome the limits of the image (comics) opens a path of creativity and innovation in photography and ethics. 

Finally, this module explains the property rights to learn how to use the image in a legal way and attributing the authorship of the projects.
