This You Be the Editor lesson plan also includes:

Look at different case studies to discuss the ethics of journalism. Twelve real-life events are written up and your learners get to be the editors. Encourage your class to think about the implications of publishing decisions. After each individual has looked at these cases, see the actual responses of British citizens to editors' choices. Spark discussion and be the catalyst for reflection in connection with free speech and freedom of the press versus issues of privacy.
