1. Explain what happened to the man that was killed by the subway and how the photographer was able to take the photo. the man was pushed unexpectedly and the photographer was there and took the photo.
2. Why did the photographer say he took the photo? He said that the photo was accidental.
3. Do you think the photographer should have taken the photo?i don't think he should of taken the photo, because thats something terrifying to see as a cover shot.
4. Do you think the photographer did the best thing he could have done in this situation? Why or why not? no, if the photographer had enough time to take the photo, he would of had enough time to save his life.
5. Do you agree or disagree with the decision to run the photo on the front page of the New York Post? Explain why or why not.
i disagree with the cover photo, because nobody wants to see this accident happen.6. What is more important to a photojournalist, capturing images of life as it happens or stopping bad things from happening? Why or why not? I think its stopping bad things from happening, because they could save someones life, and that a great photo they could capture of them.
7. Do you think it is ever ethically acceptable for a photographer to involve himself/herself in a situation that he or she photographs? to me it could be either way, because if he takes the photos, then eventually he's already involved.
8. Should photojournalists always avoid influencing events as they happen? i don't think always, because maybe good things could happen too.
9. After reading the responses from the professional photographers, what stands out as the most appropriate response for a photographer to this situation. to me the quote that stood out was "its very important for the public to remember that journalists play an important role and that they can often perform an important public service"
