Artificial Intelligence powers the newsroom of the 21st century. But is journalism ready for the revolution?

From automated reporting that can draft articles in seconds to investigative tools that can find a single name in a million documents, the power of AI is reshaping every aspect of journalism. However, this new era presents a profound paradox: the same technology that promises a future of unprecedented efficiency and insight is also being weaponized to spread misinformation on a massive scale, eroding the very foundation of public trust.

Modern Journalism: Ethics, AI, and the Future of News is the essential field manual for navigating this turbulent new landscape. This book moves beyond the hype and the headlines to offer a clear-eyed, practical guide for journalists, newsroom leaders, students, and anyone concerned about the future of a fact-based society. It confronts the most urgent questions of our time: How do we uphold timeless ethical principles when our tools have no conscience? How do we build sustainable business models in an age of infinite content? And how do we redefine the role of the human journalist when the machine can write?

Inside, you will discover:

A Deep Dive into the AI Toolkit: Understand the real-world applications of AI in news gathering, from automating routine tasks to powering complex data-driven investigations.

The Ethical Minefield: Confronting the Hidden Dangers of Algorithmic Bias, the Crisis of Accountability in Automated Systems, and the Urgent Need for New Ethical Frameworks.

The War on Reality: Learn the anatomy of deepfakes, synthetic media, and AI-powered disinformation, along with the emerging strategies for detection and debunking.

The Newsroom of Tomorrow: Explore the practical skills, training programs, and collaborative structures needed to create a resilient, human-centered newsroom for the AI era.

A Path to Sustainability: Uncover new AI-driven business models and revenue streams that can create a more financially secure future for journalism.

A New Covenant with the Public: Learn why fostering media literacy is no longer a peripheral concern but a core journalistic mission essential for rebuilding trust.

This is more than a book about technology; it's a profound argument for the enduring value of human journalism. It is a call to arms for every reporter and a beacon of hope for anyone who believes in a future built on verifiable truth.
