Whistleblowing

Read the case a whistleblower accepts a deal in Boatright. Prepare a case study using the following format:

Decision: Was the whistleblower right to accept the deal?

Facts: What facts presented in this case are relevant to the decision. Choose only the important ones (no more than 8, usually 4-6)

Ethical Reasoning:  Apply an ethical theory:  (Utiitarian, Fairness or Virtue) support your decision.  So if you think that the consequences f the decision to accept the deal are such that the good outweighs the bad, you would use Utilitarian reasoning and show that. If you are using fairness, you need to show what your maxim is and how it can be universalized. If you are using Virtue, you have to describe the options in terms of effect on the actor’s character.

Opposing Point of View: Write a justification for a decision that would he the opposite of yours.
