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 in the photo got pushed onto the track, and the photographer tried to signal the train driver with his flash.
2. Why did the photographer say he took the photo? To signal the train operator
3. Do you think the photographer should have taken the photo? I feel The photographer did what he had to do, he tried get the operators attention but either way i train couldn't be stop that quickly, so i think its a good thing he tried but its also good he got this picture. (Yes)
4. Do you think the photographer did the best thing he could have done in this situation? Why or why not? Yes And No, He could Have tried helping the man. But also if he did he could have risked his own life, or he might have known he wasn't strong enough.
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. No b/c that ruins his family & his privacy.
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? Both, B/c you cant always stop stuff from happening, but if you know for sure you cant then get evidence, get a photo.
7. Do you think it is ever ethically acceptable for a photographer to involve himself/herself in a situation that he or she photographs? Explain why or why not. Yes b/c he/she was a witness, without his/her photo no one would have seen this but the people who witnessed it.
8. Should photojournalists always avoid influencing events as they happen? Explain your answer. No it depends on what kind of event is taking place.
