Heres the google translation. :-) Open Letter to channels precession Drawing Angel Polagan site for Kaagl Zahira war Press the written and audio-visual professional values and ethical principles are at the core of the work of a professional journalist, reporter . Principles and moral grounds are considered as a professional era Charters for the person who takes the profession of journalism professional . When we talk about ethics , we are not talking about morals or religious community or those associated with conscience , what we mean is a set of ethical principles and professional work of journalists over time and in different parts of the world to promote and documented and confirmed adhered to in order to keep the press credibility and status. Vary the details of this « Testament » from one culture to another , but one of the basic principles that does not differ by two in global organizations for journalists is that you should respect the sanctity and privacy of victims of wars, conflicts and disasters , Take Initiative moral of the World Federation of Journalists example . In major media outlets and a constant reminder that there should actively ask the reporter / her his / her Is there anything in the public interest or public opinion in snooping on melancholy or injury or pain . In major news organizations in the world, there is appended to this reminder : « that were not confident of the case , ask your reference professional top , although there was no need for imaging or interview you should take permission from the person concerned or his family » .. Knowing that the camera bodies and display is totally unacceptable , especially if there is a possibility that the people recognize the identity of the victims body through the picture . There are permanent confirm the need to respect the feelings of the victims families , and the tendency to take into account the feelings of the viewers in general and children in particular of them . One of you might say, but when operations are located major terrorist bombing can think of these details , and also one of you might say, in the live broadcast of errors , including inbound and exceeded standards . The short answer both , and the example is not far from the coverage of British TV channels for the subway bombings in London on July 7 of the year 2005. Deadly explosions affected several locations of the city at the same time left many of the victims killed and wounded , televisions British hastened to send cars direct transport to the place of the blasts , open air wide open to reporters , but we have not seen one body and did not watch the wounded in hospital . We heard stories of the survivors , and we saw the wounded minor wounds , and heard telling reporters what they see accurately and strength , like you see the picture without viewing. We saw the remnants of a personal bag here , a shoe there , a blood stain , but we did not see one body . Reporters Mtmascon feel responsibility for their role inserted , did not pollute their minds obsessed with the lead and achieve fame , the event and were Vadjath axis precession and not a person , not a reporter / her . Reporters and journalists channels may have Wrongs professional at other times and in such an event , but everyone was aware of what it means to respect the sanctity of death , injury , pain and loss. Everyone was responsible . Now to the correspondents of the precession and exclusive channels in Lebanon , Qaysoa all Bngtitkm direct ancestor to blow Bir Hassan and before Tripoli Ruwais and before and before and before ... Sit down with your screen a little bit and watched what was committed Macrawfonatkm and Kamaratkm Butkm and direct . Could you respond to that in a moment « direct » could not have avoided the camera bodies and wounded who lives were devastated by the blast and deployment on the sidewalks and in the middle of the road . It may be , but why Amdtm to repeat images , divide the Hashatkm to two and one directly and the other for Taidoa viewers pictures of dead and wounded in the situation to say the least it is not humane. What is the benefit ? Is one of you asked himself this question before taking the decision to re- display the pictures ? Why add to the report prepared hours after the event a close- Walid severed dumped on the side of the road ? Or a corpse lying askew ? What do you think was one of the correspondence when apologized on the air of not being able to enter a hospital and shoot the wounded because the hospital administration prevented them from entering ? Add to all of that , during the coverage of any event (especially in the coverage of event the size of the tragedy of the recent bombings that hit Lebanon ) , define the principles associated with the profession of journalism need to be careful and not to rush in broadcast news , and avoid all that hatred based on race , religion or denomination. Evaluate what you did and the judge , and if the superego allows you Fabgesoa , read the , learned , gathered , they agreed , they identified your principles editorial and ethical and publicly committed to it, and do not repeat Atazawa ..
