Thsi whole discussion has boiled down to whether HDR is okay in 
photojournalism.

What pisses me off is that the discussion we SHOULD be having involves the 
complicity of several of our governments in killing children with disturbing 
regularity!

There are interests, some well paid, which are very happy that the world is 
much more concerned with the tonal adjustments of this photo than the ugly, 
sad, horror of the truth that it shows no matter its tonality!
