WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

 

 

Moral conflict

This test only has one question, but it's a very important one.    By giving an honest answer, you will discover where you stand morally. The test features an unlikely, completely fictional situation in which you will have to make a decision. Only you will know the results, so remember that your answer needs to be honest.

 

 

THE SITUATION:

You are in Florida, Miami to be specific.

There is chaos all around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding. This is a flood of biblical proportions.

You are a photojournalist working for a major newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster.

The situation is nearly hopeless. You're trying to shoot career-making photos.

There are houses and people swirling around  you, some disappearing under the water.

 

THE TEST:

Suddenly you see a man in the water. He is fighting for his life, trying not to ! be taken down with the debris. You move closer.

Somehow the man looks familiar. You suddenly realize who it is. It's Donald Trump!

At the same time you notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

 

YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS:

You can save the life of Donald Trump or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo, documenting the death of one of the world's most powerful Republican men hell bent on the destruction of America.

 

THE QUESTION:

 

Here's the question, and please give an honest answer.

 

 

"Would you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?"
