Is it bad journalism to reveal a famous person's autopsy results? Should such a thing require the family's permission?

It may be bad taste but this is the type of information that those magazines at the checkout counter make a living doing. 

I'm sure those that reveal all that information that some families do not want to make known are getting some sort of compensation.

We do have freedom of the press in our country.

I sure hope we have some freedom.  I took Journalism in college.  I even spent some time as a cub with The Olympian.  Now I'm going into military journalism. 

 

I didn't like the way The Olympian culled and spun their news.  If you didn't share their bias they would run you out on a rail.  I just gritted my teeth and hung on until I just couldn't stand them anymore.

 

Some of those people were really strange.

It's great to see that you realize what's happening to our beautiful country, I do wish more folks would start to see the underpinnings of the present administration and especially the press who plays a tremendous part in slanting the truth to hard working Americans. 

Good luck with your future plans!

America is the finest nation that ever was.  All nations have their faults.  The only thing I don't like is the spoiled leftists we have.  They grew up rich and protected.  Man I grew up in a little logging town.  I was working in the KFC here when I turned fifteen.  I had to lie about my age to get on.  When I turned eighteen I told the boss the truth.  He said he knew all along.  He said he knew I was going to high school too and gave me the night shift so I could attend school.  I stayed on and went to junior college for journalism. 

 

Those spoiled white people with green and orange hair had daddy's money.  Lots of them never finished high school because they were always at some protest out of town and neglected their classes.  Despite that they still got into college on their family's money.

 

I was working full time and going to school full time.  After all of that they tell me I am exploiting other people because I wasn't protesting with them.

 

Okay, those are the rules.  Do they mind if I find a better game?
