Trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. 
Or as we say in 2019 — a sucker.
What else can you say these days, in this culture?  A culture of doping athletes, abusive priests, Wall Street scammers, piratical corporations, sexual predators, college admissions cheats and a swaggering chief executive, now rapidly barreling toward impeachment. 
Ethics — defined by Merriam-Webster as "a set of moral principles" — sometimes seem to have vanished, like the passenger pigeon, from the American landscape. 
Nor do you have to look to Washington, D.C., for examples. There are others, closer to home. As the November elections near, we can't help but wonder: is the local mayor or council person we pull the lever for today going to be resigning in disgrace tomorrow?
And yes, there are unethical journalists. Even if it is the ethically questionable Donald Trump who says so.
