Staging is wrong. I think that's a pretty basic ethical principle in all mediums of journalism. Therefore, it's hard to imagine an editor informing a writer that it was ok to stage a picture. I would have to agree with Dave Wertheimer that those editors and writers do not take into account the reason for journalism- to serve their publics with truth. When one fails to do that, he is not truely a journalist and is unfortunately the reason so many distrust the accountability of the news. It's a cycle. People don't just wake up one day and decide not to trust the news.
