Legal and ethical frameworks

A legal issue is something that occurs that has legal implications and may need the help of a lawyer to sort it out.

Moral issues are an issue of concern that can potentially help or harm someone.

Ethical issues occur when a given decision, scenario, or activity creates a conflict with a society's moral principles. 

The initial legal issue - one legal issue that I can think of is copyright. This is when someone uses content or property that is not originally owned by them. People would need to get permission to use someone's material if it has been copyrighted

Initial moral issues - One moral issue would be dishonesty, in which false information can be presented, misleading the audience/ For my ident. I will ensure that any information that is presented to the audience is accurate.

Initial Ethical issues - One issue that fits into this category would be Privacy, in which someone's personal information could get leaked. For my ident, I will ensure that it is appropriate and that there is no unwanted information put out for everyone to know. 

The company that regulates TV, is OFCOM. They make sure that people get the best from their broadband, home phone, and mobile service and also make sure that people enjoy what they watch on tv and what they listen to on the radio. 

From the broadcasting codes, three aspects that may impact on my ident is 

Harm and offence – this may offend people who can’t afford a lot of money

Fairness – broadcasters must avoid unjust or unfair treatment of individuals or organisations. I must ensure that the representatives in the ident is treated fairly. This would be shown near the end when they laugh about Videira not being able to answer the question completely.

Privacy – any infringement of privacy in programmes, or in connection with obtaining material included in the programme, must be warranted. I will ensure that all the representatives give consent to being included in the ident before being distributed to its audience.
