that site does not have enough background to the images.
The balcony image started a debate about sensationalism in the press and some readers turned hostile towards the apparent invasion on the woman who died (the child lived). The press defended the right to report the news as it happened. As a result of teh photo, cities across america vigorously inspected fire escape safety and building exits.
This is a great book that has a timeline of all these images.
