Huntington Story

Wednesday night at 10 p.m., a 53 year old woman named Janice Jones was shot in the leg in Barstow, California after her dog accidentally knocked a 9 mm handgun off a seat.
California Highway Patrol press liaison Tammy Rye was working the case. She reported that Jones was eating pork chops in the back of her motor home on Beach Boulevard near Highway 1 when the gun went off, shooting on impact of the fall.
The bullet went through Jones' leg and exited out through the side of the vehicle.
"It could have been worse," Rye said. "The bullet hit two inches from the gas tank."
Jones was immediately transported to Huntington Beach Hospital for her injuries.
Jim Washington, a spokesperson for Huntington Beach Hospital, confirmed Jones was treated at the hospital but gave no additional information.
After inspecting the property, Jones’ dog, a pomeranian named Tombo, was removed by Huntington Beach Animal Control officers due to malnourishment and fresh cigarette burns on
Its forehead
“It could have done with a little less abuse and a few more of those pork chops,” Ngo said.

Photo Manipulation and Ethics

Image
A) I've learned that when you manipulate photos there is a fine line between ethical and nonethical photos. Photoshop is very controversial and can cause many people to be upset about edited photos. Many major publishing companies do not tolerate doctored images at all, and can cause people to lose their jobs. B) The philosophy of photo manipulation for newspaper companies like the Washington Post and New York Times is to provide very strict guidelines for any sort of photoshop. C) I think that it is acceptable to altar an image as long as it does not affect the meaning of an image. I do not think it is ethical to crop somebody's face onto someone else's body because it is hinting that that is their body. I do, however, think that adjusting colors or lighting is acceptable. D) I think that this image is the most unethical because it shows Oprah's head on somebody else's body while stating that it is Oprah. Also, this was published without the consent of eithe
