absolute/situational?

After watchin the dove video and all the photos that have been changed, im starting to go wtih absolute. They alter things to an unatural beliefe and changeing the truth.

A photo can capture a part of teh truth. not the entire truth because your not showing how that person or situation realy is. but u are capturing a time and moment for ppl to see. like with the war in iraq. that is telling some part of truth to the people that cant see it.

in the edit reality, its difficult.. ive learned that there is a thin line when it comes to the edit reality. by cropin your changing how much the person can see, and by takeing things our of the picture that just altering the truth.

Its important that the news organizations have clearly defined ethical standerds because there trying to tell as much of the truth as possible and want to stick to what is going on. there not altering reality.
