NYT Freelance Contract Angers Photogs

From Photo District News:

The New York Times angered hundreds of freelance photographers last week when it distributed a contract some are calling "outrageous," "insulting" and just plain "sad."
The contract asks freelance photographers to assign joint copyright ownership to The New York Times, giving the newspaper the absolute right to exploit the photographs for the life of the copyright and collect all licensing fees, without payment to the photographer.
