The Daily Show's Jon Stewart is usually a very pleasant and funny host, but in the link below we see a very different side of him. He is angry and lashes out at his guest Jim Cramer of Mad Money.
Stewart claims that the financial news industry has certain ethical responsibilities to the viewing public, which Cramer should respect.
Here's your challenge: Explain the ethical issue. What were Jim Cramer's ethical responsibilities? Is Stewart's anger justified? What was Cramer supposed to do and where did it all go wrong?

When I grade these papers I will be looking for the usual essential points:
Is your argument clear, well planned, coherent and free from technical mistakes?
Did you do a good job of presenting the ethical issue? Did you use the textbooks or other course material to support your points? Did you define and explain key concepts and terminology?
Is your paper well written? Does it present good overall structure and organization using paragraphs to emphasize the structure of your argument? Are there spelling and grammatical mistakes?
The minimum wording for these papers is 1000 words. (Your paper should be about 3 1/2 pages long; A4/Standard Letter size, 12 pt. font, double spaced). In short papers like these, you need to discuss issues to the point, while developing and explaining your own ideas and reactions.
Organization and focus are essential to a short paper.
Your paper must have proper documentation in accordance with the MLA or APA style manual. These style manuals are available in the library and online.
Do not copy from other sources without acknowledgment. Research and Academic Honesty are important.
