It was a chilling commentary that gave me pause. This is a must-read for journalism students and others involved in working with and for the media. If ever there was a time to focus more squarely on doing the right thing, this is it. I read yesterday’s article in the Wall Street Journal about reporters serving as accomplices to Spitzer.

What was the one they profiled last night? Pretty Woman. Then, 3 minutes later, in an unrelated story they talked about Spitzer. I just think it's amusing that film and people romanticize the rich men paying for a prostitute's services, and how they both found love. NO one addressed Richard Gere's personal life in that movie. And how life imitates art and it's a much different story. Joan,

I thought it was particularly interesting last night’s Entertainment Tonight– they did a top list of all time best summer romance films.

What was the one they profiled last night?

Pretty Woman.

Then, 3 minutes later, in an unrelated story they talked about Spitzer. I just think it’s amusing that film and people romanticize the rich men paying for a prostitute’s services, and how they both found love. NO one addressed Richard Gere’s personal life in that movie. And how life imitates art and it’s a much different story.
