It could be argued that photos taken by a photojournalist have MORE value than artistic shots. The photographer had to be in the right place at the right time to capture a moment.
But in your hypothetical case, fair use seems to be the only hopeful excuse for not licensing the photograph. If the site it was published on was truly for educational purposes and had no advertisement or other income, it may be seen as fair use.
