It begs the question to the old adage, jack of all trades master of none!
Why would you want a super photographer to bend his art and try to do video.  Or vice versa!

Modern photojournalists are meant to provide stills and video coverage as well as voice reports.  This save news networks money but in reality we now get bland, stilted reports that lack great photos or incisive video with poor verbal/vocal content.  Also the desire to get into news by the public has led to the gifting of great images to the news channels with no reward to the photographer!  In the past even local newspapers would give a by-line and payment.  Now the large news channels just gobble up the content with no payments and no by-line.
