Fox News airing live suicide unethical?

FNC had no reasonable expectation that the incident would end in a suicide. Therefore the airing of it doesn't enter the realm of ethics at all. Now if they kept replaying the incident, that would be a different story. It's the same situation as Jack Ruby shooting Oswald. No one saw that coming, either.

What would be unethical about airing a car chase? It's out in public, people could see it on their own without FNC. Chases are televised in CA all the time. FNC just picked up the feed from the local station.

You the two seem to have a reading comprehension concern or you probably did no longer even difficulty to examine the object which you linked: "Fox information anchor Shepard Smith advised visitors minutes later that the video replaced into meant to be on a postpone so it must be decrease off from airing if needed. "we actually twisted up, and we are all very sorry," Smith suggested."

The car chase was not the unethical part. Them airing the suicide live was unethical, and not to mention just barbarism for the sake of grabbing ratings.

i am in CA they show car chases in LA all the time on TV

its like a train wreck no one wants to see one happen but everyone like to see one when it does

I find it amusing that the thing people want to complain about is the one time Fox News accidently aired something true.

Your statement can easily be shortened: Fox news unethical?

Doesn't say much for Fox News does it? It's just disturbing what they do to TRY to get their ratings up and not even give one thought to the feelings of this persons family and friends.
