In an article written by Kate Taylor, published by the New York Times on April 8, the statement made by Huffman in reference to the College Cheating Scandal is summarized. Felicity Huffman says her daughter was unaware of the cheating, and that she (Huffman) was ashamed of the betrayal. A total of 33 parents were charged in the case, and while many have said they will fight the charges, another group have also accepted the charges, including Huffman. This scandal of celebrities engaging in illegal activities for improving their image (via getting their kids into good colleges), is not new, as a very prominent example is one we just learned about, Watergate. While that was political, it was still an example of breaking the law when legal ways to go about the goal exist.
