Speaking of Ebert as far as I'm aware he and Martin Scorsese are friends. Ebert still continues to review Scorsese's films and even wrote an entire book on him.
Is this a lack of proper objectivity? Is it a minor form of corruption as well? I agree that taking sexual favours for coverage would constitute a blatant breach of ethics but where does the line of corruption start? Is it writing about a friend? A close friend? A former lover? A current lover? A significant other? When does one cross the line from simply writing about someone they know through work to it becoming a conflict of interest? Is it only when sex is involved or does it start earlier? Is Ebert violating the ethics of journalism that people are trying to uphold here?
Kurosawa's book (http://www.amazon.com/Something-Like-Autobiography-Akira-Kurosawa/dp/0394714393) is pretty good. Scorsese by Ebert (http://www.amazon.com/Scorsese-Ebert-Roger/dp/0226182037) is pretty damn good.
They didn't recommend any additional reading this episode for Martin Scorsese.
I'd recommend "Scorsese by Ebert" by Roger Ebert. It's not exactly a biography, but it's an excellent recap of his career.
