In your response, identify an SPJ principle, a particular philosopher/philosophy, and a loyalty that best supports your decision.  Support your response with particular scene(s) from the film.  Cite at least one passage/quote from the Plaisance text to support your response.

Cite a particular philosopher/philosophy in your response.

Question 2: Who was the “worst” ethical villain, Angela from Catfish or Stephen Glass?  i.e. Whose actions were more “unethical” – Angela’s or Glass’s?
