Sidney, it’s a known fact that most newspapers and magazines in many developed countries are encountering economic difficulties. In Asia, its a different story where readership is picking up. However, for a photojournalist to survive, its not only enough to be doing still images anymore. One should know the skills to handle multimedia. It’s the trend and the future.

As for citizen journalists, I agree with you. However, this will only apply to news photojournalism. When it comes to issues and in depth stories, the documentary photographer/photojournalist doing these kinds of work will still be of use.

Congrats…!!!!

It is a bad time for the newspapers, the magazines all over the world… advertisement income is going down, readership is going down due to the competition of the internet… and (photo)journalists feel the pinch…

I don’t think it is a job with a great future… we will always need people to cover the news… but for instance most of the pictures of the Bombay terrorist attacks were done by people who were just passing by or who were locals and not by photojournalists…
