With digital visual and audio files, it's easy to alter an original photograph, video, song, or taped conversation. What are a speaker's ethical responsibilities when developing presentation media for a speech?
When we are developing presentation media for a speech, we have the ethical responsibility to accurately represent facts as facts. We always responsible for citing someone's sources. All speakers now have the responsibility of verifying their original sources, observing copyright laws, finding the primary sources of their data, and refraining from altering original content. Many pictures and songs are used without permission, movies are pirated, works plagiarized, and quotes unacknowledged. That is why we must make sure that the cite we are getting this information from is credible. We not only need to make sure text is credible, but we also need to be sure that videos, photographs, songs, etc... are credible as well. When developing presentation media for a speech we have to tell our audience what was the original source and what we have changed. But if we altered something very successful or we took the idea for preparation own produce I believe that we can tell that you are credible source because you are inventor of your idea and produce.

It is very important to make sure that you are very careful when using presentation media in your speech. Citing where you got your media from is very important because you could have used pictures from some random source that had nothing to do with your topic and you could potentially use them for your unrelated topic. For instance, I am doing my speech on a disease that causes a specific set of symptoms that you can see on the skin. When I used google images I almost chose an image that was not an image of the disease I am even talking about, but it was difficult to tell until I went and did a little more research at the website. Sometimes giving false information with presentation media can be unintentional, but that does not mean that you don't have a responsibility to your audience to give them accurate facts.
