Photo Manipulation and Ethics


A. It's not ok if it changes the meaning of the photo.
B. They have strict rules like don't change the colors.  Also photojournalists have to turn in the original photo along with any manipulated photo.
C.  Ask the person's permission for any edits.  Don't switch bodies.  It's ok to crop photos if you don't cut out an important part of the story.  It's ok to lighten a photo or darken it if it's not changing it like the O.J. Simpson photo...just making things more visible.

I think this photo is the most unethical because you shouldn't steal someone's body and make them look thinner, younger, more glowing, etc.  They used someone of another race as if Oprah's body wasn't good enough.  It also steals credit of the orignal photographer from his work. They didn't even tell Oprah they were going to do this.

This image manipulation isn't so bad.  It's just making her look a little thinner but isn't changing who she is or using someone else's body.
