What about Dr. Huxtable

September for PRSA and SCPRSA is ethics month. I hope to raise your awareness of ethics. 

Ethics is moral principles that govern a person's or group's behavior. Keep in mind you need to think as if you had “skin in the game.”

What about Dr. Huxtable, Bill Cosby? I’m sure you’ve seen bits and pieces of this continuing story. 

Assuming the media did its due diligence, there appears to be a history of the actor’s misconduct. If the accusations were correct, would you have continued to be his publicist?

In our society there are many issues that should make us think about ethics and the golden rule. Many of them are not black and white; they must be considered individually and personal conclusions drawn.  I trust this example has made you think about ethics.
