Photojournalism and documentary is NOT a dying art. Infact, with todays digital technology, more people than ever are taking photographs and digital video. The ease of development (not required for digital), and storage of media make for portable "digital darkrooms". No more taking your equipment to a processing facility or studio. All you need is a digital camera/recorder, computer, storage media, simple editing software, some understanding on copyright laws and you in the business of documenting life's events.

I happen to agree with you. In a visual world, the more stunning image takes precedence over the more "boring" one. Like, perhaps, why is Paris Hilton talked about so much? I don't happen to agree, but most of it has to do with she's perceived as "pretty".
Referencing to the movies, why did "I, Robot" become a box office smash while "Fahrenheit 9/11" fell short of grace. Regardless of the true impact, no one wants to see something they could actually learn from anymore. As sad as that is, it's true nonetheless.

Since your question looks for only one lesson I would limit myself to your query status. The value of humanity is falling apart too rapidly in today's world as a result of which so much of violence world wide. What we need to teach is to ask to respect social bindings and human values specially to the upcoming generation. Other positive things would follow automatically.
