[nagdu] SPECIAL ASSIGNMENT: Fake service dogs and the negative impact

My understanding is that they don't get permission. Under cover guys and gals do, not reporters which is what frustrates me about reporters breaking the law.
Plus, if reporters were doing really bad stuff like the under cover guys, we wouldn't know who they were.
Reporters are going after the fruit with no real penalty behind it.
I still say what the reporter did was wrong given the aim of her story.

Who does what because the penalties aren't that stiff? You mean write the stories by way of taking the dogs into the places? They aren't going to get penalized if they let the authorities know they are doing so, are they, and if they are writing a story? I may be all wrong about this, but this is often how people get their stories. It is very much similar to an under cover agent work, so they probably get cooperation. Maybe I'm just wrong about this, but that's my thought on it.
