Ethical Violations

Question 1

FInd a recent article(in the last month) on a marketing ethical issue or marketing ethical violation facing a company or industry. (be sure to cite at least two real business articles such as Business Week or Wall Street Journal, more is fine. APA citation)

Summarize the situation and reference your article. Pinpoint what the ethical violation or potential violation is-does or could the AMA ethics code be violated? Which clause? Does the situation involve violation or potential violation of laws? Industry norms? Human rights?

Question 2

This paper is a self-reflection paper that will give you an opportunity to better analyze and define your personal and professional ethics and values system/s. Oftentimes people will wear different “hats” inside and outside of their work environments or choose to engage with others through different identities. In this essay, identify whether you “live by” an ethics and values system that is common to both your personal and professional life. If not, write why you choose to wear different “hats” or “live by” two ethics and values systems. If you are unlike most people and you operate from one ethics and values system in and outside of your work environment, write why and how.
