Middle Tennessee State University Ethics in Journalism Reflection

 

Chapter 14 discusses values and ethics in the journalism industry.  please write on the following scenario:

You are a reporter for a local news outlet in Nashville (pick either TV, newspaper, or radio), and have been assigned to cover a  protest in the city against the new Biden/Harris administration while at the tail end of the COVID-19 pandemic.  While it’s difficult to predict what exactly will happen, you can probably predict potential scenarios that may pop up due to past events.  Using issues and content from the book, what sort of ethical issues could you face while covering the rally?  How would you approach it?
