This difference speaks volumes. Here are some ways photojournalists perpetuate their status. All education and training effort is devoted to improving what we are already doing. Think of it this way. We work to improve the next assignment, but seldom ask questions about the grand mission of photojournalism.
Photojournalists go off by themselves to invent new ways.
They had to do this in the beginning, because no one else was interested. All the education of the last 50 years has improved photojournalists, but it's put them in a different camp. They even go to separate conventions to emphasize that difference. This is the opposite of modern organizational thinking. Journalists accept an atmosphere where most creative energy is devoted to the next edition.
