Is it within the boundaries of journalistic ethics to post the name and photos of the 4 year old child of a homeless person?

Asked by The_Compassionate_Heretic (14634points) July 18th, 2009

The local news ran a story about a chronically homeless panhandler in the city who had her son taken away by CPS. Some readers are upset that his name was used and his photographs were posted along with the article. How do you feel about this?
