Seven Ethical Dilemmas Journalists Face (Marcus)

Offending or Distasteful Content
I feel that uploading offending or distasteful content the most severe. Although it is impossible to post an article without offending anyone as by taking a stand on a certain topic, our very viewpoint and opinions could be in a sense 'offending', it is important when to stop and filter content. The reason why is because an article written can be read by almost anyone and when journalists make certain remarks which may insult someone however minor it is, it can cause offense which may escalate into a larger scale. This is especially true when journalists discuss about religion and race as they border along the lines of giving his opinion and something that offends that religion or race. When it blows out into a larger scale, this may result in many unwanted problems.

I think that Bias will be the worse. When someone has bias on someone during journalism, they would give the more positive comments towards the bias which would make the person not at fault look bad. In journalism everyone should be treated fair and truthfully.

I personally feel that "Commitment to accuracy" is the the most unethical thing to do. The task and purpose of being a journalist is to relate facts to the public or audience. If the information that the journalist report is not true, what is the purpose of following the news? Usually, journalist report false information because they want to make the news sound interesting and exciting so more people will buy their news and as a result, earn more money.

In my opinion, the most severe ethical dilemma journalists face is Invasion of Privacy.

If the journalists take pictures or videos of someone without their permission and then post it, they may get embarrassed and/ or humiliated. Due to his/her actions, they may suffer severe consequences and at the worst case scenario, they may get fired and lose their job.

6. Bias.

Content should be fair and not judged, or having the story swung to the other party. The viewer has to know the full story so that he/she may judge for themselves who is the wrong/ guilty/ what actually happened.

I think the most severe ethical dilemma would be Invasion of Privacy.

If the journalists publicizes information of a person without the person's permission, the person will be humiliated. The person might not few comfortable with his/her information being let known to the public. By publicizing information without someone's permission, the journalist can get sued for invasion of privacy. The journalist can be dismissed from his/her job after being charged with Invasion of Privacy.

The most severe ethical dilemma would be Invasion of Privacy.

If a journalist takes and posts inappropriate photos of whoever they are interviewing, with out the person's permission, the person will get humiliated. The journalist can be sued or charged for invasion of privacy. Depending on how severe the situation is, the journalist will receive a warning or even lose his jobs. Journalists like this make us feel that our privacy is threaten.
