摘要:Journalists - just like philosophers, theologians, doctors, lawyers and others - are responsible for the origin and quick development of bioethics. Having reported and written for Life magazine in 1962 on the ethical doubts (such as the “three who’s’’ - who will live, who will die, and who will decide), Shana Alexander has been declared the originator of bioethics. A natural connection exists between journalism and bioethics; it has been developing since the media’s fi rst superfi cial interest to the current journalism, which includes a model of permanent interaction where journalists function within the role of bioethics professional and vice versa. From the racing developments in science and technology comes a new branch of journalism, bioethical journalism, which may play a signifi cant role in the popularization of bioethics.
