A. Some of the main points I read about in the article are about the fine line between documenting the truth, and making your work look its best and make the most sense.
B. Washington post and new York times require all journalists to turn in their proofs and original shots.
C. Personally, I think acceptable edits would be enhancing the color or clarity of an image, or highlighting and whitening a picture.
D.
The picture that I think is the most unethical is the University of Wisconsin picture on their pamphlet. Instead of showcasing the real diversity, or maybe lack there of, they photoshopped a picture of a black male into the crowd, to make it seem like their campus was more diverse. Instead of faking and photoshopping, maybe they should work on expanding their body of students and the various races, religions, and people they should have.
E.
I think the manipulation that is the least unethical is the picture of Kenny and Bobby McCaughey on the cover of Newsweek, after they were blessed with septuplets. Though some people may think that them trying to change the way she looks is the worst form on manipulation, my personal opinion is that the change wasn't extremely dramatic, it wasn't of her body or her face, and only of her teeth. If it were me personally, I would want my teeth, to look nice on a close up of me on a public magazine.
