  Rahmatullah Naikzad, an AP photographer in Afghanistan, took a snuff film of the Taliban executing two women. The evidence is pretty solid against him for violation of the AP’s own ethical code of conduct:

  AP employees must avoid behavior or activities - political, social or financial - that create a conflict of interest or compromise our ability to report the news fairly and accurately, uninfluenced by any person or action.

  Editorial employees are expected to be scrupulous in avoiding any political activity, whether they cover politics regularly or not. They may not run for political office or accept political appointment; nor may they perform public relations work for politicians or their groups.
