Photoshopping Gets Sacramento Bee Photographer Suspended
The Sacramento Bee has apologized to readers for running a photograph in their Sunday newspaper that had been digitally altered. The photo was a composite of two pictures of birds taken at the Galt Winter Bird Festival. The photographer, staffer Bryan Patrick, has been suspended pending an investigation.
From the newspaper’s apology:
The Bee’s ethics policy strictly forbids such manipulation of documentary photographs. It is considered a violation of our core values, as it misrepresents the accuracy of the event.
