Notes

  • Magnum Photos maintains a photographer bio (magnumphotos.com/photographer/ernst-haas); not consulted in this round.
  • Perspective: journalistic / biographical.
  • Not fetchable anywhere (NYT paywall; no Wayback Machine snapshot found via archive.org API). Marked verified: false per issue #9 procedure. Per CREDIBILITY.md, Wikipedia is not a valid citation endpoint — it may be consulted as a pointer to primary/secondary sources but cannot itself corroborate a claim. Magnum’s photographer page (magnumphotos.com/photographer/ernst-haas) is the closest Tier-3 corroborating authority but was NOT fetched this round. Biographical dates in Key excerpts are held on the pre-existing NYT citation only.
