Ny times photograph question

Question

I was at Coney Island today when they told us to evacuate the water because they found the missing body of the 10 yr old girl that drowned there last week. I took some photos and am wondering how do I sell them to papers?

Answer 1

Call or e-mail the Editor and ask if they are interested.  Very often, newspapers won't print pictures of dead bodies, lest they offend families or readers.  You might also try CNN or one of the news channels, but do it before it is yesterday's news.

Answer 2

They may not want to buy them but if they are interested they will run them.
