Ethics

I found many things interesting during this week of classes, however the most interesting thing to me was how ethics relates to the media. It seems to me that many people, journalists, organizations, etc. have thrown ethics out the window. There have been many occasions when the information that is being relayed to the audience has been tampered with, making it hard for people to know what to believe. Two major groups of people I can think of that are affected by this are celebrities and politicians. For example, Tiger Woods seems to be in the media a lot lately because of his alleged affairs. However, what is society supposed to believe? There are so many stories going around that are not ethical and situations like this one happen all the time. Everyone needs to start reporting more ethical information because great consequences can occur if unethical information is reported.
