TI - The truth as a principle of journalistic discourse
AB - 
	The paradigm of truth is a precondition for social communication; it defines the recognition of events, gives meaning to the facts and formulates messages.
	The article attempts to unravel the dilemma of whether the formula of truth in journalism transmission is identical with the philosophical, juridical and ethical formula. Moreover, the paper considers whether the truth might partially result from the character of the means of communication which transmit the information.
	The author proposes several theses referring to truth as a condition of freedom of speech and the adequate, discursive, and paradoxical nature of truth. These theses are meant to determine the axis of the discussion about the idea of truth in the media and to answer the question about the veracity of the journalistic discourse formula.
