Not a photojournalist, so just shooting my mouth off... again! :-)
Going digital for most photogournalist can save cost, they are the one
who shoot hundreds of rolls a week. The current digital equipment is
not that expensive a 2-3M pixel DC is good for newspaper printing,
like the Fuji S1, it only cost around $3000, add $1000 more you get a
few 128M RAM cards to go.

You may be right. For an equivalent quality image, perhaps you select
a $200 point and shoot. By the time you have shot $3800 worth of
film, maybe 700 rolls, you are going to start losing money. :-)
