Several questions:
1. Where are the snipers?
2. What's the point of having 5000 press photographers all taking the same photos? Wouldn't it make more sense to hire 5 and have them take photos for all the news organizations?
- mseebach 18y ago1: Either out of sight, or not there. With a density like that, what would a sniper do? Snipers are good for covering open ground, not what probably the most densely crowded area in America. Good screening and lots and lots of manpower on the ground is the only thing that works. 2: Pictures like this. Innovation doesn't happen in a room where 5.000 mediaoutlets try to hash out the photo-policy they want for a given event. Btw. it's probably more like 50 that gets up close. AP and others do exactly what you're suggesting.
