What do you do when you’ve been disgraced from your job altering 79 photographs (revealed so far), and are fired? Turn to what was your hobby – Storm Chasing. So was the path that disgraced Toledo Blade staff photographer Allan Detrich followed as he, the phoenix, temporarily rose from the ashes when he found himself in the middle of the aftermath of the Kansas tornado disaster.

I’ve been keeping up with the Detrich thing and have blogged about it once before, and after reading your post I decided to go back to it, but..
Well, it appears CNN has written Detrich out of the May 5 article. They don’t make a correction or anything of the sort, he’s just gone. What should we make of that?
