Answer to Question 1

Answer: Unethical communication distorts the truth, manipulates audiences, or fails to include all relevant information. Companies can communicate unethically by omitting essential information. For instance, not telling employees that an impending merger is going to mean some of them will lose their jobs is unethical. It's unethical to present someone else's words or other creative product as your own. It would also be unethical to selectively misquote, misrepresent numbers, distort visuals, and fail to respect privacy or information security needs. For instance, although British Petroleum attempted to communicate openly and truthfully about the Gulf Coast oil spill in the summer of 2010, the public still felt that much of the company's communication contained some unethical elements.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
