An interesting point about the ethics of tweeting. The AP’s social media guidelines state, “Don’t break news that we haven’t published, no matter the format.”

Ethics of undercover
Just a small piece on the ethics of undercover reporting I found online.
They talk about ethics is a hot-button topic in undercover reporting and that In general, undercover reporting is allowed only when the information to be obtained is of the utmost importance and when there's no other way to gain that information.
