Due to the appearance of new information technologies which contain specific characteristics, the sphere of modern media needs to re-engage with the issues of media ethics, particularly the ethics of journalism. Therefore, Pope Benedict XVI presented a postulate on infoethics. Infoethics is not a new field, but rather, it draws on the Law of God and the achievements of Christian ethics as well as the ethics of journalism. Thus, we treat it on the one hand as normative ethics with standard values and on the other hand as moral law which draws on the foundations of Christian thought. Within this framework, infoethics concerns unprecedented problems for both the Internet and traditional media. Changes in the nature of the journalist’s work are reason for the formulation of supplemental codes of ethics. The same principles of formulation, however, are not enough. Therefore, the primary criterion of infoethics, and of all ethical conduct, is love.
