Not fair use on English wikipedia
This image cannot be used on Wikipedia because press images are not fair use per WP:Fairuse and WP:Fairuse. Press photographers make money from taking photographs of news events and people and selling the rights to news organizations and websites; by reproducing the image on Wikipedia and offering it for free, we would be directly competing economically with the creator of the image. Per fair use law and Wikipedia’s fair use policy, this makes the images not fair use.

Under exceptional circumstances, the images themselves may be worthy of comment. A good example is the Adnan Hajj photographs controversy, where the photos themselves are the direct subject of discussion. If you feel that this is the case for this image, then please read WP:Fairuse and WP:Fairuse and make a judgment. If you would like a second opinion, please ask at Media copyright questions.
