Video killed the radio star, as we know from the Buggles. But now print journalism is facing the same fate with its online version. Just like society, information is becoming increasingly fast-paced. No sooner has it been published than it is retracted, adapted or taken over for the print edition.

This paper addresses these questions and ultimately results in media ethical considerations on the subject.
