Analyze a situation when you received bad news.

Discuss a time when you received bad news. This could be anything work-related or personal that is appropriate for you to discuss in class. What communication context is relevant to the message (organizational culture, ethical responsibilities, legal requirements, level of urgency, and so on)? What is important about the audience that should have been considered? What medium (or media) was used to convey the message? Given this background information, did you find the message effective? Why or why not? If not, what would have been a better approach?

Note: Please do not answer if you can't answer the whole thing, this is a single question based on a scenario. Minimum words 400-500.
