Photojournalism: Diana is not its greatest victim

Article Abstract:

Photojournalism has had to address questions of ethics, decency and taste from its very beginnings. It has been accepted for many years that newspapers can be sold on the basis of photographs, and this has encouraged editors to put pressure on photographers to get photographs with public interest at any cost. Some photojournalists have behaved extremely heroically, however, and others have made great personal sacrifices in order to record human tragedy.
