Zusammenfassung
Law and Ethics are two disciplines that need to be put together if the philosophy of the right to information wants to be well understood. This paper tries to demonstrate it from the analysis of the judgment of the Constitutional Court 192/1999. The Court, having granted the protection to the right to communicate freely an information, bases his failure on veracity. The legislator, to explain this constitutional requirement, uses some philosophical arguments from which a whole theory of veracity can be deduced. A veracity that, being a subjective attitude, can be understood as an authentic moral virtue.
