UNDER THE THEME:
VARIETY SHOWS WITH NEWS CONTENT 

Variety shows with news content are subject to the same ethical and professional standards as other forms of journalism. The time allotted to news segments in these programs must be clearly identified so that there is no confusion between the news and other portions of the show. The hosts of these programs must also avoid sliding news coverage into segments not intended for that purpose.
