Dear Blog Guy,
Do you have to be tall to be a news photographer?

Absolutely not. As you can tell from this actual photo from today’s file, we do use photographers who are below average in height. They have their own perspective on the world. We do use taller photographers for assignments in which readers might want to see some faces.
