NYT Freelance Contract Draws Photogs' Fire

From the NY Post:


The warm and fuzzy feeling that New York Times Executive Editor Bill Keller is trying to create apparently does not apply to the paper's beleaguered freelance photojournalists.

The clock is ticking for the photographers, who must sign a new contract - which strips them of many of the old copyright controls they have enjoyed - by April 1, or risk never shooting for the Gray Lady again.
