Week #1 Discussion Forum - Media and Ethics

Please feel free to research the topic beyond what I have placed in class before you post this journal entry. 

  • Ethics/Legal rights
    • Someone owns their work when it is a product of unaided their effort. 
    • You should be able to use others' work when you have added/altered more information than they acquired and or give acquit credit and or payment. 
    • Others' work should not be used when legality prevents it.
    • Owner of the rights owns the content of the copyright
    • You can borrow small elements but usage is restricted
