Extra Credit

1. The man was shoved onto the tracks of the subway and killed by and oncoming train after he was pushed onto the tracks by a panhandler who was harassing people while trying to calm him down. The photographer was was taking pictures with flash to alert the train.

2. He claimed that he was trying to alert the train to stop by using the flash when a picture is taken.

3. I think he was trying to save the man when taking the photo by using the flash.

4. He could have done more and actually gone up to help the man up.

5. I don't think it was a good decision because it shows a man seconds before his death and nobody helping him

6. I think not just to a journalist but to any sane person that stopping bad things from happening would be the obvious choice because you don't want anyone to get hurt or die.

7. Yes i think its ethically acceptable to involve oneself in their own photo depending on the situation. If the situation is not controversial then its fine in my opinion.

8. No because the photo isn't the only thing that matters. The photographer is a person like everyone else they should help in dangerous situations if needed.

9. This quote is the most appropriate response because there he is correct in my opinion. There were obviously people around and they did nothing especially the photographer who could take multiple perfect photos to "warn the train".

Wow! enough time to take a few pictures. Why didn’t the person help? How many pictures did they take? 3-4 pictures. And nobody tried to help. Not one person. The pictures sure shows that much. What an age we live in when getting the picture is more important! I am appalled.
