Ethics in journalism

Or photojournalism.
Interesting article:

Kinda makes you wonder how much of what we see is manipulated.

It was probably only done because when they went to print the original photo in the low res they use for newsprint, her eyes all but turned into little black dots.
It does look pretty creepy in its online version, but I really think there are more important issues to be discussing.

nice distraction from the pending indictments though

Wow. I resized the picture much smaller in low res and it looked just fine after printing.

She has that constant serious business look on her face and they exploited it. Seems highly possible.

But something tells me it wasn't done intentionally to make her look evil. It just appears that way once you see the original photo. I'm not convinced.

They only come back when I'm on the prowl for a fake.

Everyday when they come to I-Club they search "military" under "Salty" before anything else. If they see threads without a black dot they pounce.
