Feast your eyes on a world before the internet. It was possible to get news both in and out of the Woodstock site if you were prepared to queue for a long time and make use of the very basic facilities.
What you're looking at here is twofold. In the background, on the orange wall, are four payphones (one of which is smashed) which attendees could use to call home and reassure their parents that they hadn't died, and that it wasn't as bad as what they were hearing on the news. In the foreground are two journalists, one with a typewriter, summarizing the day's events and getting their stories off to their editors. Unless they brought carrier pigeons, we'd have to assume there was also a fax machine somewhere. You have to admire the dedication of the guy who's worn a full suit and tie to a music festival.
