Why Can’t We Publish Addresses Of New York Times Reporters?
New York Times reporters Julie Bosman and Campbell Robertson published the address of Darren Wilson in the New York Times so here are their addresses.
GotNews.com strenuously objects to publishing the addresses of individuals who are being targeted with death threats.
GotNews.com published the address of Ebola patient Nina Pham so that people could avoid going to her Dallas apartment.
But it would also be wrong to publish the addresses of journalists without their consent.
It would be wrong, for example, to publish Bosman’s address at
5620 N WAYNE AVE APT 2
CHICAGO, IL 60660-4204
COOK COUNTY
It would be similarly wrong to publish the address of Robertson, too.
1113 N DUPRE ST
NEW ORLEANS, LA 70119-3203
ORLEANS COUNTY
So why do journalists think they are beyond examination?
How does it advance the story to know where Darren Wilson and his newly wed live?
I called the homes of both @campbellnyt & @juliebosman to ask them about their decision to publish #DarrenWilson's address in the NYT.
