1. Was it appropriate for the station to suspend Giangreco for expressing his personal opinion on his Twitter feed? Why or why not?
2. If you had to make the decision about whether to discipline Giangreco and how, with whom would you consult? What would you ask?
3. Does this incident provide an example of effective discipline as described here? Can you suggest a way WLS-7 could add to the effectiveness of the discipline in this situation? Do you think the desire to set an example for other broadcasters and members of the press should have any weight in the station’s response to actions like Giangreco’s?
