BSIT 1A

ACTIVITY 1:

Answer the following questions according to what you have learn from the lesson (10
pts each).
1.     Why is it important to be ethical in communicating today?
because most people are losing sight of what is right and what hurts other people
2.     When you think of politicians today, would you say that they have been
communicating in an ethical manner?
Yes, because the ethical manners exist and has been regulated in the law. So politicians
should use the ethical manner. However, in some cases there are also politicians who
do not use them.
3.     Who comes to mind on the subject of violating the ethics of communication and
why?
The people that come to mind whenever the subject of violating the ethics of
communication is talked about are most of the politicians and the media, and this is from
everywhere, and not just here in the Philippines. We all know politicians are liars and
thieves and yet we listen and some even worship them. It is obvious that media
companies grow their empire through advertising, and when a blue chip company pay
millions to the media, then their reporting is already compromised. These are the first
two things that come to my mind when this subject is brought up.
4.     Why do people communicate in an unethical manner?
Because it helps them get what they want. And they might believe that this unethical
way is the easiest, the fastest or even the only way to get what they want
