Photography Ethics

Is This Photo Ethical?
Reading this article really disgusted me. Moving the body to get a better composition? Sick ****s.
I realize the importance of getting images out to the public, etc, but man, this really bugs me.
Thoughts?

Half way down this page, it suggests the body was not moved, but that because of the slope and fact that she was laying on the pictures, her body slid into the position.

To move the body would violate photojournalism guidelines. Not only will the image not be printed, the photographer will get fired from his agency/publication, be banned from working in journalism for life, and have all of their previous images deleted from company archives if anyone of them did such a thing.
