I have mixed feelings about this sort of thing. It's nice for the consumer, I suppose, but I wonder how it might be affecting the market for PJ photographers. While it can provide exposure for those trying to build a reputation, it also gives the media a source of free pics. Free is a compelling price point, after all, especially for newspapers that are desperately trying to cut costs.
