More on Monks & Media Ethics

   Journalism professor Joe Marren presented a paper on "The Mertonian Journalist: The Impact of One Monk's Philosophy on Ethics and Practices" at a regional meeting of the American Catholic Philosophical Association October 30 at Niagara University.
   Joe is becoming known for his academic work on Thomas Merton, a Catholic monk who wrote about ethics and social justice. He has applied Merton's thought to the field of media ethics.
   See an earlier posting of "A Monk's Advice on Media" in the May entries on this blog, linking to Joe's published paper on Merton and media ethics.
