Newspaper ban on paparazzi photographers not all it seems

Newspaper ban on paparazzi photographers not all it seems

News International’s apparent ban on paparazzi shots of Prince William’s squeeze, Kate Middleton, may not be all it seems. The National Union of Journalists has called foul as the ban appears to apply only to self-employed snappers. Meanwhile, the great many photo news agencies are free to pursue the woman tipped to be the next queen. And the Sun continues to appeal for reader pictures… bet they’d take something from citizen journalist’s agency Scoopt if it was hot enough.

    Paid links & reader offers

    Many businesses offer payment to those who link to them and paid-for links are often used here in preference to free links. While such links are not as obvious as other forms of pay-per-click advertising, they still don’t influence views expressed. Entries labelled 'Reader Offer' are advertising promotions.
