A well written article. As for this reply, I followed right up to the point of:

[QUOTE] Creating a media culture where ethical behaviour is routinely denigrated is also a very poor idea. But see what is produced for TV and films. Worse, see FOX News, Anne Coulter, Pat Robertson, and so on. [QUOTE/]

I don't quite follow. You went straight from making a point to having an agenda. And you assume that by using these names, we are supposed to be inflamed and understand your point. What denigration of ethical behavior would you be referring to from any of these media sources. Whether agreeing with their politics or not, I can't think of any case of them specifically denigrating ethical behavior. Having the "wrong" political stance is far from being unethical. And arguing against one's politics is healthy debate that must be done in an ethical manner. Do you have a specific example to clarify your point?
