Okay... well firstly, i hope this gets counted, it is Friday night, but its before mid-night, so hopefully i havent exceeded the deadline!
My opinion in this matter, had been made since, the first time we spoke about it in class. I believe it is ethically very wrong IF the hoax about Hala Sarhan's TV show is true.Journalists, T.V hosts, and all people that are incharge of what media content should be broadcasted, printed or posted have strict and ethical guidelines to follow. By asking girls to lie about a false "prostitution" story just to spice up her show or attract more viewers, Hala would be bending the rules and not following the ethical ways of media. But the question is, are there really any ethics in the media presented to us in todays world, in the first place?
Well.. there a lot of things that need to be considered, such as researchers bias, content consensus, audience selection and also 'censorship' before certain media is presented. In Hala's case, the issue about her faking this and the girls actually telling people about their so called "lies" is only a scandal at the moment, not a proven fact. It could or could not be true.

I agree with you very much, and this is exactly what I am trying to say! Media has absolutely no ethics and the aim of presenters is to attract more audience than delivering a true message.
