Father of photojournalism?
The claim, citing no evidence, that Grosvenor is 'the father of photojournalism' is shown nowhere in the is article to be anything but hyperbole. He was certainly NG's first full-time employee and enlisted Alexander Graham Bell in consolidating the magazine, and like editors of other publications worldwide, was taking up the emerging technology of halftone reproduction of photographs. The history of photojournalism starts with Fratelli D’Alessandri's pictures of the Papal troops at Anzio in 1862 and the battlefields of Mentana and Monterotondo reproduced in L’Illustration (Paris); or Bruno Braquehais' photographs of the Paris Commune of 1870, or American Edward Spencer and his associate Carlos Díaz Escudero's reportage of the Guerra del Pacífico (1879–82); or Nadar's photo-interview Entretien de M. Nadar avec M. Chevreul, le jour de son centenaire also for the newspaper L’Illustration: Le Journal Illustré, 5 September 5, 1886; and then there is Jacob Riis. To claim Grosvenor is 'the father of photojournalism' is therefore anachronistic and unsupportable. I've removed those claims. Jamesmcardle(talk) 04:26, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
