Spoštovanje domneve nedolžnosti v Slovenskih novicah pri poročanju o primeru Plut : diplomsko delo

Glaser, Mirja (author), Kržišnik, Erika (mentor), Poler Kovačič, Melita (mentor)

V diplomskem delu se ukvarjam s prispevki o t. i. primeru Silva Pluta, ki so bili objavljeni v Slovenskih novicah. Gre za primer človeka, ki je leta 1990 ubil svojo sošolko in sovaščanko. Za ta zločin je bil pravnomočno obsojen in je tudi prestal zaporno kazen, po izpustitvi iz zapora pa je bil obdolžen umorov še dveh žensk. Cilj naloge je ugotoviti, ali so novinarji Slovenskih novic pri poročanju o teh umorih upoštevali domnevo nedolžnosti. Zaradi svojih opažanj pri neanalitičnem branju prispevkov izhajam iz predpostavke, da Slovenske novice kot tabloid domneve nedolžnosti ne spoštujejo dosledno in v nekaterih prispevkih domnevnega storilca kaznivih dejanj prikažejo kot krivega za zločine, za katere mu krivda še ni bila dokazana s pravnomočno sodbo. To storijo z izborom jezikovnih sredstev, torej s stilom pisanja. Takšno pisanje ima senzacionalističen učinek in je v nasprotju z normami novinarske etike pa tudi s pravnimi normami.

Abstract

In my thesis I write about articles on the so-called case of Silvo Plut, published in the Slovenske novice newspaper. It is the case of a man that killed his schoolmate and fellow villager in 1990. He was convicted for this crime and he also completed the sentence. After being released from prison he was charged with the murders of two other women. The aim of my thesis is to determine whether journalists of Slovenske novice newspaper took into consideration the presumption of innocence when reporting on the cases of these three murders. Because of my observations after a non-analytical reading of the articles, I am working on the supposition that the newspaper Slovenske novice as a tabloid does not respect the presumption of innocence and it sometimes presents the alleged offender as guilty of the crimes for which he has not been convicted yet. This is achieved with the selection of language tools, therefore with the style of writing. Such writing has a sensational effect and it does not comply with the norms of journalistic ethics and legal norms.
