Photo authenticity, the troubled public as well as social world around

 China News Photography prize authenticity, that ; part of the process, and publish a full set of contest photos.
, especially disturbing is that used to be a realistic event Discrimination on the Internet turned into a one-sided diatribe against doubters, one need only stand , just stand in value judgments. human nature, morality, conscience, tears, forgetting, a hero hh these words, instead of the truth, the real discussion of whether or not, become a public repetitive high-frequency words, a public morality asked the weapon. In this environment of public opinion, the discussion of winding under, the truth seems more and more blurred blurred together.
23 days, the chaos, the Chinese news photography prize jury announced results, photos reflect the Wang Shouhai the main characters in the picture while not the mastermind, but relying on an objective body involved in the process of asking price, is the executor of this act; photographic record of the process is asking the body part to rely on. Although Wang Shouhai strongly argued that he did not speak asking price, but according to an eyewitness, said Wang Shouhai they are the parties involved and the implementation of the asking price. So the printing of the results of such a debate because it will identify the dust settles? or, in the dark and moral redemption of human nature, reality and news social reality of the dispute, the one who is the final judge?
In fact, setting aside a specific dispute, I fully understand the public face of such a picture to express anger. any news that can freeze-frame picture, and are very limited, but The ladle is the sea, history of the moment, really touched people, angered others, is behind the photos are rich, but also fresh, or warm, or moving, bloody, cold hh social life, the world around life. The picture asking dragging people. that kind of cold, that kind of price tag, even, and some calm.
start with the facts. Jingzhou area of the incident, recovered from the Yangtze River inside the bodies of drowning, has become a specialized line of business. boss is responsible for contact and get the bulk of the fees collected, the fishermen who take the punt fishing labor costs, such fishing dead there in the local ecosystem for many years, has been quietly running the. In such a community of interests, it is difficult to know which in particular asking, who worked on it, or who is more miserable than anyone else. old Wang Shouhai While meager income, but this is not that he can remain outside the division of labor, divided interests, enjoy the bulk of the naturally dictates, while the residue remaining soup points, still can be regarded as an accomplice.
As the price per twelve thousand dead fee fishing Why is no one intervention, it is another level of meaning. later held a monopoly on what basis the owner of Bo river fishing rivers and lakes dead? local government and relevant departments in the end what regulators should bear responsibility? price fishing dead fee, whether RBI, caring for the part? also unknown. but a basic fact is, if not this time fishing hook to the body roll is three students of self-sacrifice, the hero, I am afraid the local government will still go on indifference. In fact, in many cases , the Of course, dead people do not intend to defend some fishing, just behind the photos in the narrative of social picture. In a nutshell that is, a hero encountered blood, is a series of cold and indifferent, is the social reality of the hard and sharp. We may all wish to see moving to a rescue Zhuangge, but there are always some dissonance to stimulate our senses. Moreover, a similar phenomenon is superimposed, and superimposed much more, will become a virtual impression of the facts, and false of the true facts will gradually together, and further become the basis for value judgments about us. Karamay fire is heard from the true and false.
It is this impression of continuous superposition of the continuous support of the reality of these years, many public events are very difficult to really withstand the moral questioning. the scarcity of material, has increasingly become a public analysis of the phenomenon, leading to essentially tool. this thread in the users performance in well: hand, no doubt assured attitude vividly online, its impossible to seriously discuss the authenticity of a news photo. In other words, as long as the ugly social phenomenon is not eliminated, as long as government responsibility is still not in place, the picture but a catalyst only, authenticity is not important or not.
However, despite the survey results found no fake pictures, but can not hide the flaws of public criticism of the photo itself. We Can reality behind the authenticity of the photos be understood as the authenticity of the photo itself ? In other words, the reporter Zhang Yi can not write a caption at the time, just to have someone write their own party to say the words in quotes? investigative reporting, including investigative news pictures, at least the bottom line is the truth. The truth, of course include as much detail as true. Wang Shouhai participated in the dispute.
compared with the peace faction has challenged, disputed, there is rebuttal, a confession, it is always a good thing. I believe the jury will announce the findings argue over, but will not really calm . This event will raise public awareness of journalistic ethics, moral questioning, government responsibility and so on long-term thinking hh. Local Government why there is always the miraculous ability, which should be accountable to the disaster together, have turned into a heroic rescue Zhuangge? media how to customize Office, can only be found between the facts and determine the safety and balance? why the public mood is always one or the other, into the ultimate evaluation being? these problems will not disappear doomed, doomed yet long-term problems with press and public.
news never exist in isolation, but morality is not at the moment of this transition quickly aphasia. However, we blame society when cold, it should be cold is to try to eliminate these . but merely tell the story of morality, is impossible to completely eliminate the apathy. The key lies in the government's responsibility, system of protection and rights of return. In this sense
