Erin Andrews, peephole video, and why you're probably Dumas material to try to watch it

The TVweek.com Bizwire moved a story linking to opposingviews.com (linked here) where journalist ethics are debated about this scandalous story.

To get you up to speed: The video was taken without her knowledge or consent while she was in a hotel room. It appears that the video was taken though a hole in a wall, the article says.

"Web sites routinely run celebrity photos that can be argued as having invaded their privacy, such as shots of them sunbathing in their backyards, taken with a long telephoto lens. Perhaps [deciding to publish this material] has much do with the what is legal and what is not, and if there is a threat of legal action. In this case, ESPN general counsel David Pahl sent [a] letter to at least one website."

While many sites did provide the video, TMZ, which is notorious for running scandalous photos, did not. TMZ said: "We will not publish the video nor did we purchase it. It's a clear invasion of privacy."
