This is a story about Laquan McDonald, the teen who was shot and killed in Chicago by a police officer. The most risky thing that a newsroom in Chicago can do is air the shooting of this teen. On this website and on television this footage was shown, but is it the right thing to do. Apparently they thought it was the right thing to do, this article also goes on to talk about how the newsroom showed some of the footage from the video. The article also went on to say that the newsroom warned the viewers before they showed the video, but is that enough?<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think it is ethical to show this video repeated on TV, especially where the murder took place. It\u2019s very sad that things like this are still happening after some many other cases of police officers killing unarmed people, you would think that this would stop happening. Newsrooms should be able to show things like this on TV, but on their website that is different; putting the video on the website makes more sense. Newsrooms do things like this to get more ratings, but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s the case with this news station. They should be more sensitive to their viewers and the victim\u2019s family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
