Photojournalism’s ethics in the digital age of“ ”manipulation

Mennat Allah Ehab Salah Eldin Assisstant lecturer – Faculty of Mass Communication – Cairo University

Introduction: Historically, have been altered by the tabloid press by cutting and pasting together prints or combining several negatives on a single print. Often the seams were concealed by painting with airbrushes. A trained eye could spot such manipulations, but with the advent of digital it became possible to manipulate so subtly that the changes were undetectable. Content could be added, deleted or moved around inside the . Several notorious cases of such manipulation occurred, particularly in the industry. Leaders in saw this new capability for seamless manipulation as a threat to the credibility of the photographic image and thus to the profession itself and reacted. (1)

The ease of which photographs can be manipulated with software programs such as Photoshop combined with the increasing demand for photographs by clients and outlets produces a world in which ethical boundaries can be crossed with something as simple as a mouse click. For this reason it is important to examine what those ethical boundaries are and what are doing to ensure that they themselves do not cross those boundaries. Because the area of ethics in photo manipulation is such a grey area, it is up to individual photographers, photo editors and even those that manage media outlets to constantly take a step back and ask themselves if what they are doing is ethical. They should strive to keep the message of the image intact at all costs and work to breakdown the stereotype that photographers and photojournalists often fabricate the truth through the over manipulation of photographs.(2)
