May 13----media ethics and law

Ibrahim Al Abed The Director General of the National Media Council and Head of Emirates News Agency spoke candidly about the media terrain in the UAE.

Self Censorship.
Rules.
Journalists.
Expats.

Would we be better served with rules about what we can and cannot talk about? Maybe but that is not going to happen.

The media is new here in the UAE and it will develop.

Should journalists be worried about investigative reporting? Not if the respect the morality of the nation.

Codes of Ethics? Maybe there is some value.

Closing Geo TV.... "gives me gray hair".

The reality is you need to listen to this radio!
