 OK Bo..

What's wrong with zooms?

Unless you need a lens faster than 2.8 there is very little gained by 
using a prime lens (assuming you are using top quality lenses - NOT 
variable F stop consumer level stuff)..

And what's wrong with photojournalism?  

In the US it has become one of the most popular styles of wedding 
imagery... It has produced brilliant photographers/artists from Eugene 
Smith to Robert Frank to Margaret Bourke-White to Alfred Eisenstaedt... 
Salgado, Karsh, Stieglitz..   and the gorgeous images they have brought 
us...  And before we even go there.. photojournalism does NOT equal 
paprazzzi...
