So you want some disaster Rock n Roll photoboy? Then roll up roll up Third world fucked up country now with a great big earth quake. They've got piles of bodies, orphans, looting and for that extra nice & spicy photo opportunity they got some voodoo. This is a once in a lifetime chance. We will for a small fee ($1500) fly you into the "Heart Of Darkness" No no this is better than the Congo, for a start it's only 700 miles from the US of A.
If you enjoyed Katrina then you'll love this. You heard there was a shortage of transport even for aid workers, maybe but we are photojournalists we are needed and important, you can't have a good catastrophe without photographers now can you? Will I be able to sell my work? Of course Google images are sadly short having only 41,600,000 so far. So forget club 18 to 30 forget Club Med this year book your holiday with CLUB DEATH PHOTOGRAPHY HOLIDAYS but hurry while suffering lasts.............

There will always be those that will try to profit when there is blood on the streets.
You have to question peoples motives. I think with something like Katrina, people never questioned photographers motives of profiteering from peoples suffering (until prints where hanging on gallery walls) because there was no one around (living that is) and therefore the suffering was not so obvious. But this is a whole different thing. The only people going out there should be the ones that are selflessly willing to help.
I am glad someone is showing the dark underbelly that can arise in the name of photography.
Jeez....though fair enough, they admit there'll be "limited housing possibilities"..!!!
Great post Mark. Mishka
