摘要:The aim of the research is to see to which extent a particular medium adheres to the ethical rules and standards set by the medium itself. We are dealing with the subject analyzing The Croatian Journalists’ Code of Honour and The Code of Ethics of the daily newspaper Jutarnji list. The research indicates that violence in media and its presentation is at the same time the violence of media towards the persons involved in the tragic events, as well as the violence towards the public in terms of over-emphasizing and spreading moral panic, wherein the proclaimed self-regulation in the form of ethics codes is shown as cynicism. Although these two codes are very similar, the differences between them do exist. Namely, the code of ethics of the Europapress Holding media company gives much more freedom to its journalists than the HND code of ethics, and also allows exceptions to the rule, whereby the same exceptions are converted into rules.
