The dead person themselves wanted their death to be reported. It feels like worse ethics to deny them their voice in their final act.
But anyway, I saw posts yesterday with the video that had received consent from the family to release it as long as his death itself was blurred. They may not understand his act, but they believe he deserves to be seen.
The guy streamed a video to his Facebook. Want hard for journalists to track down.
Well I don’t think it’s a resource or methodology issue, rather more of a glaring ethical one.
