I think Tony's point is that photojournalism will diminish in
importance if people stop believing they can TRUST the images
they see. Network news broadcasting is already heading down
this road: people are beginnning to realize that the news is
frequently "manipulated" in order to create a definite (though
not always accurate) impression. 

Sad to say, you can bet that if documentary photographs *can*
be manipulated, they WILL be manipulated, at least by some people.
As far as "truth" is concerned, such photographs aren't worth 
the paper they are printed on.
