Interweavement: International Media Ethics and Rational Decision-Making presents a media decision-making modelthe Crisis Decision-Making Model for Media Rational Responsibility (CD_M3_R2)that contributes to the effective performance of media decision-makers, as a consequence of beingrational and responsible. The model, which is theoretical, prescriptive, and dynamic, helps media decision-makers understand what ought to be done during international political crises in order to achieve the sought-after goals. The author looks at communication from the angle of decision-making and discusses how the nature of news-writing in media organizations is full of decisions with consequences that significantly shape the content of their communication. Based on extensive analysis of international media codes of ethics and the fundamentals of journalistic practices, the author suggests a motivator towards ethical conduct and proves it mathematically to demonstrate how rational conduct for the media decision-makers is connected to the adherence to key ethical principles. By applying Game Theory to the United States-Iraqi Crisis and the 2003 War on Iraq, the author shows how individuals decisions are interrelated and how those decisions result in outcomes that when analyzed help explain the rationality of actors in the war and examine the performance of media decision-makers. The author justly calls for the connection of four theoretical fieldscommunication, mathematics, crisis management, and decision-makinginto a comprehensive body to create the foundation for the suggested model. The concept of Interweavement serves as a central locus through which the interactions among these fields are presented in a dynamic ideational architecture.
