Law and Ethics of Journalism
Plagiarism is the act of using someone else's work, ideas, or intellectual property without giving proper credit, essentially passing it off as one's own. This unethical practice can take many forms, from copying text directly to paraphrasing someone’s ideas without acknowledgment. It undermines the principles of integrity and originality that are essential in journalism and can lead to serious legal and ethical consequences.
