P.S.  Looking at the two images you posted , they are photos of the same newsworthy awful event, but quite different... the Page being much less powerful than the Jones-Griffiths who captured the agony on the child's face ...  a striking difference even if they were taken from roughly the same angle, something being dictated by their surroundings..

The Mangelson and the Ward are clearly the same frame. The Leesons' shot is a 
different frame, you can tell my lining up the foreground with bits and pieces

misattribution, rather than to plagiarism.

There is a famous pair of photos taken at the same moment in Vietnam by Philip 
Jones-Griffiths and Tim Page that shows an example of something like this, and 
I'm sure there must be many others from photographers travelling in packs.

This is an unpleasant image:

In fact, another good example is the stills of the 'tank man' of Tiananmen 
Square, for which Stuart Franklin won a World Press award, but other 
photographers on the same hotel balcony got much the same shot, with only minor 
differences.

I really feel the other two photographers were given permission to market these 
, or in the csae of Ward  maybe a simple misattribution on the web, or
they are simply ripping off Mangelsens work.  Is it possible they all three 
were at that spot at the same time???  Something just aint right.
