The Sympathy Photo
May 10, 2001 12:00 by ManagingTeamDear HonestReporting Member,
On April 6, a Reuters photographer was on hand in Jerusalem to record a Palestinian child being arrested by Israeli police, who in his fear, wet his pants.
The photo is very dramatic, showing the pain and panic of a child in a terrifying situation.
The photo was published, sometimes partially cropped, in publications worldwide, including Time magazine (European edition, April 16, 2001), VG, Norway’s largest daily newspaper (www.vg.no), Argentina’s popular La Naci
