Self-regulation of media sets the framework within which media is to operate, with official regulation only entering the scene when these limits are transgressed.
Self regulation minimises the role of official state organs in content issues, and is especially suitable for ethical questions and issues related to a fair and honest procurement of news and information.
Vafer can help your organisation in:
- implementing standards that take into account both interests of a free media and what is news-worthy and those of privacy;
- navigating the self-regulatory systems and sanctions imposed by the industry;
- illuminating the difference between self-regulation and self-censorship; and
- providing the necessary hard and soft tools to implement appropriate self regulation principles in the convergent environment of new media.
