There is at least one news agency or news organization in each of the developing countries in the world. To begin with, news organizations that only produce news texts have started to benefit from infographic designs, a graphic design product translated into Turkish as information graphics, in response to the increasing need for information sharing and a better understanding of the content. The media can increase its impact on the public by choosing how news, programs, and messages are distributed and displayed. It is important to consider certain ethical standards when creating artwork. Artists must adhere to the principles established by art. To the extent that they can adapt to these principles, society should also adapt to them. All of these principles can be shattered by an artist who does not understand the need for ethical behavior. In this context, the aim of this study is to examine the issue of ethics in the media in terms of information graphics. In this qualitative research, document and text analysis and the scanning model method were used. The research is limited to the infographics of Anadolu Agency (AA), which media organizations operating in Turkey share with their readers, visitors, and followers. According to the findings, some of the artists and designers misunderstood the idea of 'inspiration, which led them to think of making the same idea and artwork. In this context, it caused the emergence of non-original works today, and some media organizations shared history in AA infographics by social media editors and responsibles. The source reveals that the cutting of the sub-band with the logo of the broadcaster and the use of a section of the info graphics as a news image reveal that there is an ethical violation.
