Undercover journalism exposes injustices, negligence, corruption and wrongdoing and yet going undercover to expose wrongdoing remains controversial. But, undercover journalists contend that they are fulfilling a fundamental duty of finding truth through their journalism. They argue that public enlightenment is the forerunner of justice and the foundation of democracy and the duty of the journalist is to further those ends by seeking truth and providing a fair and comprehensive account of events and issues. So, there are some supporters of this kind of journalism, which sometimes infringe the privacy of individuals. However, some journalists also urge avoiding surreptitious methods of gathering information except when traditional open methods will not yield information vital to the public. In this context, answer the following questions: (a) What are the ethical issues involved in the practice of undercover journalism? (b) Do you support the practice of undercover investigation by journalists? Give reasons in support of your answer.

A friend of yours who is also a Civil Services aspirant comes to your room to discuss a few ethical issues which he is finding difficulty with. These include: a. How ethical is it for a farmer to throw his/her produce on road as a sign of protest, when people in our country are dying of starvation? b. A rich can afford both medical and judicial expenses but a poor might not. Similarly, a rich can afford to give birth and nurture an abnormal child but a poor might not. In this light how far it is ethically justified on part of the state or any particular institution to decide on the matters of euthanasia and abortion. What will be your response to the above ethical issues? What do you think is the best solution for such ethical issues which should be adopted and applied?
