You have to put your feelings aside , and sometimes that is hard . I ' ve met a lot ofpeople who think that photojournalists get some sort of thrill taking such pictures . These people are wrong . It can be just as uncomfortable for the photographers taking the Why do you think Eddie House was offended ?
