Is the ‘best’ story a war photographer can provide these days – the one that will get the most space – themselves?  Not just any photographer though. They need to be western and preferably English speaking. And not just any story. They need to be kidnapped, shot, sexually abused or blown up. If they want to hit the chat shows they also need to be a survivor.
