Security Roundtable for October 11, 2008 - Social Media Ethics

October 22, 2008 · by SecurityCatalyst

The world of blogging, podcasting and social media is a dynamic –and dominant – force in the way individuals share and consume information. In this fast-paced approach to sharing, we stop to consider the ethics involved.

With the help of Jennifer Leggio  - social media expert, former journalist and friend of the Security Roundtable – we tackle the issue of ethics. During this highly informative roundtable discussion, we tackle the responsibility (and credibility) of bloggers, podcasters and especially the individual responsibility of those consuming the information.

This episode is packed with ideas and comments that will get the juices flowing. If you want to continue to conversation with us – join us in the Security Catalyst Community (just pay attention to the naming standard – you must use your real name).

Should bloggers be held to ethical standards?

July 11, 2008 · by SecurityCatalyst

This is a question that has been kicked around quietly, and now it is the focus of the August Security Roundtable. We are recording on Tuesday (pondering using a live-feed) and I want your feedback. 

Show Prep Outline

Blurring the lines: blogging, ethics and journalistic integrity
The impact of social media on how ideas and information are shared, and the responsibility of those who create it. 
I’m driving at a few things:
1 - social media is here, and it has changed the game (ask the newspapers)
2 - used to be “if it is printed, it must be true;” seems to have migrated to “if it is on the internet, it must be true”
3- journalists have (supposedly) integrity and editors. What about bloggers?
4 - are sites with editors better?
5 - what are the lines, and does the “system” have a way of repressing the bad and sifting the good to the top?
As the popularity and quality of a blogging/social media outlet improves, do the requirements change? Should superstars be role models? What about bloggers with a following?
So whether you blog, podcast/netcast or read blogs - what do you expect from your bloggers? Got a comment? Idea? Question? Send it me michael [@ SHIFT-2] securitycatalyst [period] com. Call and leave me a message or join the conversation in the security catalyst community:
