Photo Manipulation and Ethics

1.

A. Many photographers or people in that industry, seem to edit photos in a way that is not allowed. Some of the people add things or take things away that were in the original picture. Some of the people that did this and then presented them to the public, have been fired and have had their photographs taken away or blocked.

B. This type of editing is not acceptable at all. It is not right for somebody to change things in an image that has to do with something so serious. The type of photos that they were altering, were harsh or violent images. It is good for people to know what's really happening in their country or other countries, and if people are making drastic changes, they don't get the real story.

A.

I think this photo is the most unethical. It's the most unethical to me because it's one thing to crop or add something to a picture, but to publish something that didn't even happen is outrageous. These are two very important people and I'm sure people would want to know what happened at this debate. Since this did not happen, it could cause serious problems.

B. 

I think this photo is the least unethical. It's the least unethical in my opinion because it was only mountains that were moved closer together. Things that are natural or man made could look different depending on which way or angle you are looking at it. I'm sure that most people wouldn't even notice or care that these two mountains had been edited in any way.
