Answer:
A). Have the journalist give the accurate account of the incident and apologize for lying to viewers.
Explanation:
Ethics is associated with the moral principles like fairness, equality, integrity, respect for individual rights, etc. that control a person's conduct/behavior. Thus, an ethical action must consider these values of giving equal worth(respect, justice, and opportunity) to each individual.
In the given situation, the most ethical action that the network must take would be 'allowing the journalist to provide accurate details of the incident and apologize for the lie that he made to the viewers' as this would give him a fair opportunity to rectify his mistake. It reflects that the <u>network aims to give equal respect and worth to every individual and nurtures relations through advancing justice</u>. Thus, this action would not only reduce the damage caused by journalist to network's reputation but rather enhance it(through its ethical move). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
This is a case of "negative reinforcement". The term was created by B.F. Skinner, and it is about not doing something in order to avoid suffering or pain (physical or psychological). A good example of negative reinforcement can be seen in the movie "A Clockwork Orange", directed by Stanley Kubrick. The main character goes to a correctional facility where he's forced to watch violent movies while experiencing an unimaginable sensation of nausea. The goal of the institution was to turn him into a non-violent individual by conditioning his brain to associate violence with feeling sick to his stomach. In fact, after such experiment he wasn't even able to enjoy Beethoven's music anymore, since it was played throughout the whole "therapeutic" movie sessions. In Herbie's case, he could no longer eat his daily chocolate chip cookies, since he didn't want to get nauseated again. It doesn't mean he would necessarily feel that way if he actually had the cookies, but he refused to eat them anyway, since he'd already been negatively reinforced not to eat them.
