Responsibilities of Media. Is breaching someone's privacy a moral act?


During the last decade, electronic media of Pakistan has been given a lot of freedom by the Government, and it is absolutely fine for the sake of freedom of speech. But today the direction of media specially the news channels badly needs to be addressed. There are a very few anchors which are playing their role with responsibility, the rest of the market is full of non-trained and unprofessional people who are only in pursuit of Rating nothing else. 
Recently a morning show host created a hype by actually raiding dating couples on live camera. After watching that only one thing comes into mind, is is ethical to expose someone like this in front of millions and billions of people???


Are these media personnel unaware of camera ethics? Where one can't record someone without his/her consent. There suold be a proper training and qualification before employing someone into such kind of job at electronic media. Do have a look at the videos as well.
