Journalism or Voyeurism?
KOMO (Seattle) Reporter Jonathan Choe did some drive-by “reporting” by showing a large number of homeless people camped out in a local park, just before they were to be swept away by authorities.
First, I think the reporting should entail more than just pointing your phone out the window of your car as you drive by.
Yes, the homeless are a problem for many cities, but I’m betting if you asked, 100% of these homeless people would rather be in a house and not camped out in a park in December.
I feel for the people that feel sleeping in a park is their only option.
Here are some of the comments to Choe’s drive-by reporting:
