There's an interesting discussion going on over at twitter on press trips. It was triggered by the writers over at World Hum who posted about the continual debate about press trips - ethical or not.
This latest rounds of discussions started following a this Daily Finance post - Ethics takes a holiday: Newsweek, New York Times writers in swag orgy
You can follow the debate over at twitter thread #twethics

It was a really interesting conversation, though I think most of the travel writers in on the conversation felt the same way. It would have been nice to see someone from the NYT step in and chat with us.
Great idea but somehow don't think it would happen :)
Thanks for sharing~
