  Abstract:  Although the Romanian press has had its’ fair share of scandals relating to the private lives of celebrities, it seems no lesson was learnt. As harsher provisions were stipulated as part of the New Civil Code in order to achieve an improved protection, the current research was designed in order to assesses the efficiency of previous legal norms regulating the issues, from the standpoint of their dynamic evolution, and their relationship with the respectively significant ethical recommendations. The merit of the paper resides in the fact that it introduces a form of measuring the efficiency of the legal norms by creating a test similar to the DIT (Defining Issues Test), adapted to the Romanian reality, based on the most famous, commonly cited and publicly condemned celebrity suicide case of the past decade, and it presents the results of this evaluation concluding on the moral development of journalists as a response to the regulations that were enforced or just introduced these past years.
