Nation-based broadcast tv, for example, reflects and underpins national integrity. "Stateless" personalised virtual youtube channels don't have or reflect that integrity. Is that what you mean? Note that you need to edit, rather than comment, if you want the question reopened, | |

| Apr 10, 2015 at 19:46 | comment | added | Quest | @FumbleFingers I was framing a post to address 'How mainstream electronic media has lost it's integrity completely'. Here,I want to know the word which can define this loss of integrity.Electronic media with no integrity at all. | |

| Apr 10, 2015 at 19:35 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | @Quest: Scruples are very specifically "doubts" in matters of conscience (i.e. - morality, right/wrong). An unscrupulous person is normally well aware of his "wrongdoing", but values his own immediate self-interest above morality. An amoral person (as opposed to immoral = conscious wrongdoing = unscrupulous) to me implies he has no concept of right and wrong as generally understood. You should edit your question to define exactly what you mean by "lacking integrity". Sometimes having integrity means little more than "being true to one's word", for example. | |

| Apr 10, 2015 at 18:11 | comment | added | Kevin Behan | @FumbleFingers my answer intended to address the ambiguity of OP's question, whereas you addressed it with words only in alignment with a moral interpretation of the word "integrity". Although when the word was created it was meant to reflect purely moral concerns, it has grown to have a much broader definition. A word like character -- which is used in the definition of disreputable -- was thus more aptly applicable to the ambiguous nature of OP's question. Ultimately a more specific question would be best. | |

| Apr 10, 2015 at 17:50 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | @Kevin: OED integrity Soundness of moral principle; the character of uncorrupted virtue. Like I said, the question is unanswerable unless/until OP defines exactly which of many possible senses he means by "integrity". | |

| Apr 10, 2015 at 17:47 | comment | added | Edwin Ashworth | Even 'integritous' is only accepted as a valid word by a few people, so I'm guessing an inflected antonym isn't available. | |
| Apr 10, 2015 at 17:39 | comment | added | Hot Licks | Phony, fraudster, charlatan, untrustworthy, dishonest, irresponsible, unreliable, deceitful, unscrupulous, perfidious, treacherous, two-faced. | |
| Apr 10, 2015 at 17:38 | comment | added | Kevin Behan | All of those words don't pertain to integrity, but rather to a moral compass or state of mind. | |
| Apr 10, 2015 at 17:32 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | There are any number of words, depending on both your specific intended context, and exactly what you mean by "integrity". For example, evil, amoral, and psychopathic could all fit, but they're hardly "interchangeable" in all contexts. | |
