Oh well, I'm not assuming that they weren't (I wrote equally "photoshopped", in proportion); also, I think it's a bit more complicated than a spectrum not retouched at all/complete fake.
Specifically, my suspect is that easy of retouching has a snowball effect in the culture. By lowering the barrier to retouch, there will be a competitive incentive to be more and more aggressive with the tools.
However, interesting book. I'd be curious to read what it says about Ansel Adams.
