Media Ethics and Media Law

President Obama is proposing a media shield law which states that reporters will not have to reveal their sources upon further investigations.  Some people argue that such a law will give the government too much influence in choosing which reporters to protect and therefore be infringing on the free speech of journalists.  We must ensure that free reporting techniques are not compromised or else government will have more control in the messages that are being broadcast.
