REPORTERS IN THE LINE OF FIRE

Having the truth exposed even though I am risking my safety would be the right thing to do. When i saw the clip it showed me that the person risked his safety to get some money back to their customers. If i were the reporter, I would have called the cops on the store-owner to come and handles things. It's an interesting story, but it was dangerous for a reporter and a camerman to be there.

I think that the reporter was to greedy to get her story. When she was there, it was like she was asking to get hurt. There was more publicity because he chose not to let the cops handle things. Even though the reporter got hit, he was fortunate that he didn't get threatened by a sharp object or gun.

The truth should be told if it's in fact hurting someone else. People should have the right to know about facts that can be scary, like child labour or anything like that. This truth should be exposed to everyone so that the people that don't know this can know and maybe they can be so sickened by it that they will do something to stop it.
