الخطأ في المسؤولية المدنية التقصيرية الناجمة عن العمل الإعلامي

Abstract EN

Many international legislations emphasized the responsibility of the media person for the mistakes he commits in the exercise of his work and considered them as criminal responsibility, because they affect the whole society, unlike the civil liability that results from the damages that befall the individual.

Accordingly, the journalist may not be punished for acts not provided for by law, which constitute a violation of the constitutional, legal and international guarantees established for this profession.

There were many forms of journalistic error that entailed tort liability, such as the error resulting from the abuse of the right to publish and harmful acts that infringe on the rights of individuals such as defamation, defamation and violation of privacy, as well as harmful acts that affect society as a whole, such as deviation from professional ethics and customs, breach of honesty, objectivity and non-trading in the profession.

The civil tort responsibility of the media is not different from the tort responsibility for the responsibility in general for other people, it is true that it is based on the combination of its traditional elements of a harmful act and damage and a causal link between them, but it is often characterized by the concept and images of the error that generates it, especially when we talk about responsibility for the act Personal, in this case, the error acquires, along with its traditional images, special images that mimic media work and technological development.
