It would certainly be depressing if Heisler won a Pulitzer for his work. I'd have to agree with Michael - they a part of such a narrow, sanitized view of the world.

in both the World Press Photo and the Time POY there are far better (photojournalisitcally, aesthetically) and more meaningful and important photographs.
