to Getty, it's a search on editorial, news-only images from the last 24 hours, keyword haiti.
the contrast is too much, and it perfectly exemplifies pop culture at its most despicable. photos of silicon-enhanced, b-list "celebrities" mugging for the camera at a gala fundraiser for haiti interspersed with photos from haiti: piles of rubble spiked with seven-days-dead corpses. skeletal survivors crouched near a broken pipe gathering water.
this completely automated grouping of photos makes as strong a statement as any artist or editor could.
