Ethics in Journalism

Obviously ethics in journalism is important. Without ethics, or morals, people could do whatever that had to just to get a story. Crazy tactics could be used so reporters could get their information and their quotes. It could be like an interrogation and not an interview. Even worse would be if reporters started making up stories. If you herd some big news story and got all excited about it and it turned out not to be true, you would be baffled. An example of this might be if somebody reported that Terrell Owens tried to kill himself with pain medication, but he really didn’t you have know idea what to believe and what not to believe. That makes T.O. have a press conference and deny the whole thing, then it becomes some big PR thing. Anyway, without ethics journalism would not be the same.
