Can I ethically report on a friend's travel agency if I am a travel corresponder?

            No, I do not believe that you can, unless you have someone else edit it and have them write in all the facts. Otherwise you will probably try to remain neutral but you will unconsciously lean towards making the company your friend owns look better. This is simply not ethical because it might be the worst company that has a lot of crashes and deaths involved in it or it could be the best company but be mega expensive either way you might be making someones travel very tight in expense which could cause your company a loss in money. The best way to write about your friends travel agency is to write the article but then give it to someone else on the staff and have them check it over to make sure all the facts are right and that your article remains neutral.
