What is the most ethical course of action the reporter could take? investigate the claims without revealing that the pilot is her uncle; the fact that he is a relative will not affect her reporting tell the editor-in-chief about her relationship to the pilot, and ask that the story be assigned to another reporter convince the editor-in-chief not to run the story, because the reporter knows that her uncle is a skilled pilot and believes that the allegations are false research and write the article, but have a colleague edit it before it is submitted to make sure there are no signs of bias.
