That was a very interesting topic. NBC reverting to checkbook journalism is a tragic thing to hear. Why would a big news company like NBC buy the rights to a video? To be honest its kinda stupid. They already had the interviews of the skydivers. It is completely unethical, and this isn't NBC's first time doing checkbook journalism.

ReplyDeleteThe sad thing is that its not only unethical for NBC, it could also ruin the reputation of the survivors for "selling" their story, or at least that's what it looks like to people who don't know much about it. It makes the survivors look almost greedy to the average viewer, so its affecting more than just NBC.
