    News organization seeks "questionable" camera phone photos, videos

    A major news organization is looking for camera phone photos and videos that walk a thin line between what is ethical to shoot and what is not in preparation a story about the effects of camera phones.

    One example pointed out to me by a producer at the news organization is a 20-year-old man who took a camera phone video of himself commiting suicide by jumping from a bridge in the U.K. and transmitting the video to his fiancee as he was falling to his death, according to a report in Sky News.

    The producer is looking for images from camera phones that could help illustrate ethical considerations involved when taking a still photo or shooting a video.

    Contact me

    If anyone has any examples or knows of examples -- in the United States or abroad -- please contact me and I'll relay your information to the producer.
