A very interesting story is appearing in SLATE today..A former stormchaser now thinks the idea of chasing severe weather is unethical..
I will be upfront: I love watching live storm coverage, especially hurricane and tornado reports. But I equally think news forecasters who are paid by their employer to go into the storm is unethical. If one does it himself or herself, I think it’s based more on a passion.. I always think back to when Vince McMahan made Owen Hart get hoisted over 100 feet above the wrestling ring, and then he fell to his death.It’s a tough call..
Perhaps it could also be said that ‘ghost hunting’ is as unethical if not more so than storm chasers. If you believe in ghosts, that is..
