~EXTRA CREDIT~

1. The man was pushed out in front of the train and had gotten crushed.  The photographer already had his camera on him.
2. The photographer took the pictures with flash to let the train driver know that there was something wrong.
3. I think he should've taken the photo. I mean, he was only trying to warn the driver WHICH happened to be taking pictures.
4. I do think the photographer did the best he could do. He didn't have enough time to run up and save him, he didn't have super powers that could pick the man up in time even if he DID make it to him. The photographer was a bystander just like everyone else, but he helped the most.
5. Personally I completely disagree with running the photo on the cove roy the newspaper. You're advertising a mans death and that isn't right.
6. Taking pictures of life as it happens, in my opinion, is a bit more important than stopping bad things from happening. Bad things happen to everyone and death is inevitable, but on the other hand, if something bad was happening to your loved ones, you'd obviously try and stop the bad things from happening because I know I would.
7. I think its really up to the person if they want to involve themselves in their own photo and take credit for what was done and why it was done, but i think its okay.
8.  Yes, photojournalists should always avoid influencing their surroundings when trying to capture a moment on camera. You should capture things the way they are, in their nature.
9. That -- you can't judge anything based on the story because you weren't there in person to see it happen. Most of the photographers say that he did his best by what is being told in the story.
