In May of 2021, Emily Wilder was fired from Associated Press for tweets that were apparently “pro Palestinian”. The AP justified their firing by suggesting Wilder violated the company’s social media rules. On Dec. 4, 2021, CNN fired Chris Cuomo, notable CNN star and host of The Cuomo Prime Time, for misconduct in what Cuomo claims was his support of his brother. Further claims about sexual misconduct involving Chris Cuomo have since arisen though unrelated. Both cases highlight ethical concerns about the role of journalist both inside and outside the newsroom. For this question, use evidence from the following articles and address the following questions.

What are the ethical differences? How might the journalist have acted differently, or should they have acted differently? What do you believe the balance between the newsroom (the job) and one’s private life should be? Use a short essay format and cite at least one of the “Emily Wilder” articles and at least one of the “Chris Cuomo” articles. You may also choose any reading/s from the course material to make your point. While the question asks “what do you believe”, you must base this opinion on evidence.
