Users who submit photos, breaking news reporting or commissioned blogs should expect to be<br />

edited, held to the same terms and standards as the organization's journalists or regular<br />

freelancers and face the same consequences for work that violates those standards.<br />

Frequently Asked Questions<br />

What are some of the methods by which users can generate content?<br />

Adding comments on staff blogs and stories; responding to invitations to submit photos, review<br />

restaurants and movies, or send descriptions of events they have participated in or witnessed; blogging<br />

on areas of expertise or about local issues.<br />

How effective are dirty-word filters?<br />

Not very. Users find all kinds of ways to get around the filters -- putting asterisks between letters,<br />

replacing letters such as "o" with "0," "s" with "$," etc.<br />

Who in the organization should monitor user-generated content?<br />

There are several methods. If user-generated content appears on a staff blog, you can hold the staff<br />

blogger responsible for monitoring.You can create a centralized monitoring group on your Web site. Or<br />

you can outsource the monitoring; several companies now offer this service for a fee.<br />

Am I liable for user-generated content which violates copyright laws or is libelous?<br />

At this point, the courts have generally held that the individual posting the material in question is legally<br />

responsible and not the owner/operator of the Web site on which it appears. You also will want to<br />

consider, however, the impact of such material on the Web site's brand.<br />

Can I use user-generated material in the newspaper?<br />

Yes, if your online user agreement states that you have the right to publish user-generated content on<br />

other platforms. Again, this illustrates why the Web site's terms and conditions should be posted in a<br />

way most likely to be seen by users. (This section composed by: Lea Donosky, Pat Stiegman, Robert Cox,<br />

Linking<br />

This section was composed after the conference by an ad-hoc group of conference participants: Jim<br />

Brady, Tom Brew, Lea Donosky, Robert Cox, Eric Deggans and Dennis Ryerson. They built these guidelines<br />

and protocols via their own wiki, which is why this section is formatted differently than the rest of the<br />

online ethics guidelines.
