Macvoices Audio

David Ginsburg, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Mark Fuccio, Chuck Joiner, Marty Jencius, Ben Roethig, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, and Web Bixby discuss the social media controversy over Princess of Wales Kate Middleton’s edited photo. The MacVoices Live! panel looks at the issue of disclosure of editing, whether that should be a presumption with all photos in the media, and how the media (tech and non-tech) has handled the matter: sensationalism or something worth reporting?  Today’s MacVoices is supported by Backblaze.
