Ethics In Media Communication And The Right To Privacy, Jane M. Decker
Theses
This thesis will focus on determining whether or not the media does or does not pay heavy attention to ethical issues when reporting.

Also, some view the media as an entity which cares only about sensationalism, and producing the highest rating. Over the past fifteen years or so, media coverage has changed quite drastically.
