Meanwhile, in Haiti ...

[ Studio Madeleine | January 19, 2010 | 3 Comments | 667 views]

The earthquake in Haiti has led not only military, volunteers and physicians in the country. They also took reporters and photographers - perhaps more than necessary.

The discussion of ethics photo in this context goes beyond compliance with the viewer. Against a backdrop of tragedy, come other issues. Clicio Barroso, in his blog, poses the question: " Haiti: shooting or help? ". In the post, Clicio argues that it is necessary, yes, sending photojournalists to Port au Prince, so that people have a slightest idea of ​​the size of the chaos - and so perhaps be inspired to help. What he questions is the presence of excessive (and conduct) by freelance photographers or what he calls "adrenalin freaks."

By the time of this post, the article Clicio already had over 74 comments and 181 tweets. The blog PEF recommends reading - and reflection.
