    Was this photo submitted to a credible journalist?

    Journalists absolutely write articles within a few days of an event happening. It’s no longer news if it takes them too long.

    My point is that we should share evidence with journalists, then we should link only to credible sources after they’ve done their jobs to verify the story and put it in context

      Within a few days is not the same as within a few hours.

      People uploading different images of the same event the day of, should be treated as possible evidence for a “trusted” journalist to establish the credibility of.
