But look.  You do get your name on TV.   Shouldn't that be pay enough?  :-)  Not only do they get free photographers but often free reporters too.  They haven't figured out that more often than not that the free item someone gives you is usually worth what you paid for it.   Someone once told me years ago.  The rich didn't get that way spending money..

Ah yes...getting something for free.  My favorite is the iReporters that CNN is currently spouting.  Send us your picture, and we might put it on the air!  How do they regulate image veracity?

This is SO typical, and what trolls they are for doing this. It should be illegal. Thanks for making their true intent known, Roy... They just don't want to pay for the photos they use. Everyone here should write FocalPress and protest this.
