Summary/Abstract: The world needs responsible journalists who will serve the truth and people. It is regrettable to note that the reason for numerous lies in the media is the desire for material or political gain, which is associated with the lack of spiritual formation of journalists. The old saying holds true: where money speaks the truth is silent. Therefore, a spiritually formed journalist who serves the truth and man has the duty to expose evil, honestly serving the truth, and not by side interests. Such action supports the common good and contributes to the deepening of freedom and appropriate values in society. A journalist faithful to his vocation, serving the truth and man, fulfilling the mission resulting from his journalistic vocation.
