[Leica] Request of LUG's working photojournalists

[photo.forrest at earthlink.net (Philip Forrest)]

As I'm always in awe of whom I find out I've been conversing with here
on the LUG I have a favor to ask of any of you working
photographers and journalists if I may. For a Journalism and society
class I'm researching the place of the image in modern reportage with
respect to changes in technology and the dissemination of information.
As journalism has changed over the last several decades many of you have
been there working through the changing times, adapting to new
technologies and the new ways of getting information to press or
otherwise. The use of photography in news has changed as well. 
If I could ask your thoughts on these changes with regard to the image
as news and quote your words (with proper citations giving
you the credit you're due) in my study, I would be most appreciative.
Thank you all,
Phil Forrest
