    The decision from any journalist that violates the ethics of journalism is "A reporter writes a story about his wife's company without revealing their relationship" and "A magazine runs a series of articles speculating about a celebrity's medical history".

    Option: (c) and (d)

    Explanation:

    Society of Professional Journalists is the organization that represents the entire journalists of United States and it sets the boundary line for the journalist's activities. For any journalist who attempts to write about the company of his wife without any mentioned relationship of theirs, it would violate the law. Similarly, it is beyond the ethics to write the series of reports about the medical history of celebrity.
