Associated Press: 212-621-1930 MSNBC.com's "The Week in Pictures" made its debut Oct. 16, 1998. Our goal was and still is to create an outlet for the best photojournalism. We hope to publish pictures that will affect our readers, make them feel the emotions behind the news, and help them better understand our world. "The Week in Pictures" serves as a historical record of events that change the course of history as well as unique, slice-of-life moments from around the globe. Each week, MSNBC.com multimedia producers review more than 20,000 images to make the initial selection for "The Week in Pictures." Sources include wire services, premier picture agencies and scores of freelance photojournalists working around the globe. Every Thursday afternoon three multimedia producers make the final selection for "The Week in Pictures." The quality of the available photographs dictates the number of images published each week. Different multimedia producers are involved in the final edit each week to encourage a diversity of viewpoints in selecting the best storytelling images. After editing and production, "The Week in Pictures" is published every Friday morning. Each week we invite our readers to vote for the Reader's Choice Award. MSNBC's "The Year in Pictures" compiles those Reader's Choice winners from each week and gives readers an opportunity to vote for the Picture of the Year.
