Photography is political as it is a very powerful medium which can have such a strong meaning that it can even change the way people feel about a situation. The photographer has all of the power behind the image and its meaning. I believe that as they control how it looks, the cropping the colour, depth of field etc.
Michael Coyne is the photographer i have chosen to use as an example. This photograph is from a series called: Iran under the Ayatollah.
