I appreciate your reference to this, and I'll definately read it. 

I assume you obtained the proper authorization to reprint the excerpts from
the review? (My point being, somewhere there's a line. Who has the right to
say where it is? That horse will never die.)

>>to stop the flagelation of this well beaten horse, i can recommend that
anybody who's interested get

Image Ethics : The Moral Rights of Subjects in Photographs, Film, and
Television

which was written right here at the annenberg school, editied by our
beloved and most esteemd faculty member Dr. Larry Gross. all your

one review says:

"This invigorating book reminds me of that moment in geological time when
Earth shifted on its axis. . . Adjusting for proportions, Image Ethics
fundamentally alters the world of visual imagery. . . Image Ethics
approaches the issues from a fresh perspective that will make it a
landmark in the history of the field." (Journal of communication)
