Note: You will use the following information to respond to Items 7 and 8.<\/p>\n
The National Press Photographers Association (NPPA) states that the primary role of photojournalists is to \u201creport visually on the significant events and varied viewpoints in our common world.\u201d The profession of photojournalism is guided by a code of ethics that outlines the standards and aspirational goals of the profession. The NPPA code of ethics states, among other items, that visual journalists should \u201ctreat all subjects with respect and dignity\u201d but must also \u201cnot intentionally contribute to, alter, or seek to alter or influence events\u201d (NPPA, 2012).<\/p>\n

In 1993, the photographer Kevin Carter visited Sudan, which was, at the time, experiencing famine and a civil war. Carter felt the world was ignoring the dire circumstances of the Sudanese people and hoped to use his photography to bring attention to their plight.<\/p>\n
Carter was successful in focusing the world’s attention on Sudan when the\u00a0The New York Times\u00a0published his photo of a young, dying Sudanese child crawling on the ground to a feeding station while a vulture waited in the background. Carter won the Pulitzer Prize in 1994 for his photograph that spurred many to take action to alleviate the suffering of the Sudanese people. However, Carter’s photograph also spurred an angry controversy as people criticized Carter for taking a photograph of a suffering child while doing nothing to help her. It is important to note that Carter waited a long time for the vulture to spread its wings to get a better photo. <\/p>\n
When the vulture did not, he took the picture and shooed the bird away, but he did not pick the child up and take it to the feeding station. Instead, he sat beneath a tree and wept.<\/p>\n
Carter’s photograph reported the news; it accurately reflected what was occurring in Sudan. <\/p>\n
Review this article, \u201cKevin Carter, a Pulitzer Winner for Sudan Photo, Is Dead at 33\u201d (https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1994\/07\/29\/world\/kevin-carter-a-pulitzer-winner-for-sudan-photo-is-dead-at-33.html) and the photograph titled, \u201cVulture Watching Starving Child\u201d (http:\/\/100photos.time.com\/photos\/kevin-carter-starving-child-vulture).<\/p>\n
Item 7<\/p>\n
Analyze Carter\u2019s actions using Kant\u2019s moral theory and his hypothetical and categorical imperatives to define whether the photojournalist\u2019s behavior was justified as moral, or if should he have rescued the child, violating his professional guidelines.
