I'm very late to this party but can perhaps shed some light on the demise of photography in local journalism.
My son and some friends were competing in the F1 in Schools competition and sent a media release to the local newspaper, accompanied by a photograph of the team (taken by your correspondent).
The paper initially said they would interview the boys but then decided they "had enough information to write the story."
The whole release, lightly edited, along with the photo was published.
The team's media management mentor said "WIN!"

Sorry guys but you sound like the doomsday is coming... and all you have to do is to adapt. There is a crapload of money in commercial work, so once in a while you can afford taking a break and do your own, important, stuff. And if you are smart enough you'll get money for this, public money. Documentary and social stuff moved to galleries and (self) publishing.
