The tendency towards the instantaneity of information, due in part to the irruption of social networks into journalistic discourse, has had a direct impact on the quality and ethical considerations of professional practice. Closely related to this phenomenon is the participation of the audiences in configuring the news, posing new challenges to the profession that require measures and skills that cannot always be sought in classic codes of ethics. New principles are, therefore, needed to guide daily practice. In this article a decalogue of deontological guidelines applicable to professional work in digital journalism is proposed.
