Photo Journalist isn't a career anymore? What?

As a full-time with benefits career? Not really. Most major news outlets have a select few photographers on staff as full-time employees and then hire freelancers to fill out the rest of the coverage they need.

Small papers in the suburbs and in rural areas don't have any full-time photographers and use only freelancers.
