Ethics, redux

If it wasn't patently clear by now, here's why we don't take corporate junkets here at Latin Trade. I don't want to be in Mr. Rubenstein's shoes, saying absurd stuff like "Latin Trade staffers do not let free stuff determine coverage." Unbelievable, and I'm sure even he doesn't buy this line.

One example: New York Post Page Six editor Richard Johnson received a free trip to the Academy Awards last month, paid for by ABC and Mercedes-Benz. He got first-class airfare, a three-night stay at the Four Seasons Hotel and a car and driver. Post spokesman Howard Rubenstein says: "Richard will not let his coverage be determined by anything he may have received for free, or any other benefits." (from Romenesko)
