But how do you navigate the legal and ethical hurdles? This guide answers ten key questions you will face working with status updates on social networks and other online platforms as well as eyewitness media – photographs or videos captured by unofficial sources."

La totalidad de los casos que se mencionan -una selección pequeña del universo de reclamos recibidos por el organismo- fueron debatidos con los trabajadores de los medios de comunicación -desde los periodistas hasta las productoras-, de modo de reflexionar de manera conjunta acerca de lo que las audiencias habían reclamado y la perspectiva que esta Defensoría tiene sobre cada uno de ellos. En casi todos los casos, dichos debates concluyeron en actividades de capacitación, lectura de materiales específicos y debates sobre legalidades, legitimidades y potenciales abordajes alternativos. Abordajes que posibilitaran realizar la actividad profesional en materia policial sin que ésta vulnerara derechos." (Introducción, página 8)

structures where there are none. The manual is an update to the guide published by KAS Media Programme Africa seven years ago, which was accessed by some 30,000 visitors annually. The great success of the first version was the reason for KAS Global Media to revise and internationalize the chapters. Investigative journalists in Africa and Asia often operate in extremely challenging environments, and some are designed specifically to thwart them. The manual is intended to help reporters facing such challenges as repressive media laws, so-called anti-terrorism regulations, the culture of non-transparency and limited resources. The IJM is also a hands-on training tool, allowing readers to test their knowledge with quizzes at the end of each chapter. Relevant case studies, which will be updated continuously, are also provided." (About us, page 115)

En el manual de casi 100 páginas -una suerte de crónica sobre los reporteros en tránsito al uso de la tecnología- el lector descubrirá que los periodistas de investigación ya no pueden trabajar aislados como lobos solitarios. La simbiosis creada con los escritores de código ha llevado esta profesión a horizontes desconocidos en la exploración de documentos que antes hubieran sido imposibles de analizar por cualquier medio de comunicación en el mundo."
