Media coverage of human cloning, following the Dolly case, spread fear instead of fostering ethical debate. A significant disconnect exists between bioethical discussions and Brazilian media reporting on scientific research.

Area of Science:

  • Bioethics
  • Media Studies
  • Animal Research Ethics

Context:

  • Analysis of 300 Brazilian periodical articles from February 1997 onwards.
  • Focus on media coverage following the Dolly case announcement.
  • Eighteen-month study period examining public discourse.

Purpose:

  • To identify moral constants in press coverage of human cloning.
  • To examine media's portrayal of moral assumptions in non-human animal research.
  • To assess the gap between bioethical discourse and media representation.

Summary:

  • Media coverage exhibited a haphazard spread of fear regarding human cloning, overshadowing ethical debate.
  • Identified careless publication of moral assumptions in media concerning animal research.
