As an amateur photographer with a good eye for composition, I see quite a few photojournalism shots involving people that appear to have had a bit of staging and careful positioning by the photographer. An example is the famous shot of the soldier(sailor?) kissing the woman in the NY street scene after WWII. It most likely captured what was happening at that moment in history, but the composition appears to be too perfect for it to have been a one-shot candid photo. Personally, I don't have any problem with a bit of staging as long the photo captures the essence and significance of an actual event.
