The Fight over Photographs
I found this article very interesting because I don't think of photographs in the way that the author described on this website. I'm more of the type of person that either likes or dislikes a photo-because of contrast, brightness, quality, how antique it appears, or how it can affect my mood.
When it comes to political, social, and economical points of view it is very plain to see that people will attack photos and point fingers if the subject matter isn't something that they agree with. I think it's very intriguing that someone can not even know a person and attack an image that they've taken just because their point of view is different than the photographer's.
I like towards the end of the article that there is a good thing about photos on the internet. They can all be accessed and used as information when needed. Online photography doesn't have to be bad or harmful to any individual, it just depends on how they want to look at it.
