Abstract

Radio Vostok’s “Editorial Charter” sets out the values and aims of Radio Vostok.  The charter applies to all the media’s distribution channels and is an integral part of the contract that binds the organization and its members whether employee, trainee or volunteer, but also its external collaborators. The Charter defines the radio’s identity, editorial ethics, editorial line and issues regarding advertising and sponsoring. The charter stresses the public’s right to high-quality, comprehensive, free, independent and pluralistic information. Journalists undertake to respect the “Declaration of the Duties and Rights of Journalists”, which guides them in the exercise of their mission.
