Agence France Presse's slap to photographers. ⇒

   28 April 2010, lunch time

“On Monday, Agence France Presse filed a complaint in the United States District Court Southern District of New York against Haiti-based photographer Daniel Morel. Agence France Presse claims Morel engaged in an ‘antagonistic assertion of rights’ after the photographer objected to the use by AFP of images he posted online of the Haitian earthquake of 12 January.” In other words, the AFP is suing photographer Daniel Morel for using his images illegally. Seriously.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
