A new trend in newspapers is to dismiss the photography staff and push the reporters to be more multi task.
Reporter and Photographer has different skill sets and job descriptions. The scope of both is very wide hence one person may not be able to do justice to both roles. Any news article becomes exponentially more interesting when supported by a good set of photographs. I believe it is important for different people to do different things in order to do complete justice to both roles.
Given that my reporters have a great portfolio, then why not. At the same time a professional always understands the nuances and ethics that is involved in capturing the right image for what is being reported is of utmost importance, and is aware of the guidelines.
