the story mainly expresses the things that are done to photos among the photojournalists of the world. 4 pictures are edited to please the eye of another individual. the question stands as us it unethical to edit such photos to be deceptive. such as adding another missile in the missile test photo or removing the one woman from the photo with all of the men at a convention.
I believe the most unethical shot among the photos was the one that removed the single woman from the entire group of men. suppose the one woman wanted to be recognized for being there? perhaps she was somebody important such as a representative? you would never know until the lawsuit comes crashing down on your shoes. it is sexist and unnecessary even if it is just to please the eyes.
the least unethical picture is the one that shows the man working on the pipe. all it shows is an overlapped layer that should not be in that specific spot. there is a fine line between correct and wrong photo manipulation. maybe you wanted to enhance the photo so the picture can be clearly seen. that should be considered ethical in photo manipulation.
