If 50 percent of marriages are affected by infidelity, that means infidelity is a major issue in society -- and thus, it's an important story.<br /><br />What if data told us 50 percent of families are affected by cancer? Would that tell a journalist, "Don't write about cancer?" Of course not. If anything, it would say, "Write more about cancer." To be clear, this post is not about infidelity. It's about use of a corrupt company, Ashley Madison, that specializes in facilitating extramarital affairs. They make huge amounts of money by conning customers out of their money -- seeking affairs that, in many cases, can't happen because there are relatively few women on the site. That's a business story, a technology story, a social story, a legal story, etc.<br /><br />I've written 25-30 posts on the matter, and none of them has said anyone engaged in infidelity. Each has shown that someone who should know better -- an accomplished professional or elite -- has used a digital service that has been proven to be a scam. There are ongoing federal lawsuits about it -- and that makes it a story.<br /><br />In my view, educating the public about a digital scam like Ashley Madison could help a lot of people, but I have no way of knowing if it does or not. That's why "does it help people?" usually isn't in the equation when a journalist decides to cover or not cover a story. Is it newsworthy? That's the main question, and the answer (to me) clearly is yes on the Ashley Madison story.legalschnauzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09619089628125964154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-22135347444764235042017-04-08T14:04:30.413-05:002017-04-08T14:04:30.413-05:00How does this help anyone ?About 50 percent of mar...How does this help anyone ?About 50 percent of marriages have infidelity.
