Ike Arumba Runs a Singles Club in Town

question 15

True/False

Ike Arumba runs a singles club in town. Justin Hale is a reporter who goes undercover to do a story about singles clubs, and brings a hidden camera to his first meeting with Arumba, at his home. He agrees to set up Hale with one of his clients, but for safety reasons, the club manager insists they meet at his home. Hale returns next week, again recording the events of the evening with the reporter and his date, Doris Shutt at Arumba's home. Hale then does a story on singles clubs, using the recording of both of them at the house. According to precedent, Hale will not be held liable for invasion of privacy because of the newsworthiness of the story.
