This article attempts to analyze the concept of "international standards of journalism" and conducts research on the problem of ethical regulation of journalistic activity in the era of media digitalization. It is no secret that ethical standards of digital journalism are an important component of professional ethics in the modern information society. The days when journalists were limited only to traditional media are long gone. With the development of the Internet and social networks, the opportunities for news distribution have become unlimited. However, in this regard, a number of problems have arisen that require attention and research.
The aim of this work is to study the concept of "international standards of journalism" and to study the relevance of the application of international standards of journalism in the context of the digital era.
Research methods. While writing the work, we used the following methods: historical-comparative, content analysis and synthesis.
The practical significance of the work lies in the fact that we analyzed and summarized theoretical works on international standards and ethical principles of journalism in the digital era, on the basis of which conclusions were drawn about the need to update the ethical standards of digital journalism. We believe that the materials of the work will be useful when teaching courses in the field of digital journalism.
The results of this work can be applied to further research of international standards of journalism in the digital environment, to promote the development of digital journalism, as well as to emphasize the importance of the compliance with ethical standards in a dynamic and highly technological media space.
