[Air-L] ethics of new or emerging media

[Michael Zimmer]

Charles Ess's "Digital Media Ethics" is a good starting point, and provides an easily-digestible analysis of both the ethical frameworks, and how they play out in current new media technologies.

And I've used Tavani's "Ethics and Technology: Controversies, Questions, and Strategies for Ethical Computing" for my general information technology ethics class, but that isn't focused on only new media (depending on how you are defining that).
