Photo Manipulation and Ethics
A. I read that photo manipulation originally took up to weeks, but can now be achieved in just minutes. With the advancement in technology, photoshop has become harder to detect in modern day photos, and is often controversial in the sense of whether or not the distortion is ethics.
B.Newspapers like New York Times and Washington Post offer strict guidelines to their photographers, minimizing Photo Manipulation.
C.I think some acceptable things that you could do without using unethical manipulation are correcting red eyes, cropping the photo, or adding a filter. All of these things can make the photo look better but don't completely change it or make it look like a whole new photo.
D.
I think this photo is the most unethical because I understand the school want's to show the diversity you can find at their school. You can see though that the photoshop was not done well and photoshopping in a black man instead of just posting the original photo might work worse for the school. When people find out it's photoshopped it will show they lied and didn't have enough diversity to actually take the photo with a black man in it.
E.
This image is the least unethical because it is simply just photoshopping out the horse handler to make Benito Mussolini seem more heroic. It is not altering it too much or putting out false information.
