Sports Photos: Developing

Courtesy of Online News Squared, some good news, finally, on (some) progress against the idiotic efforts by sports leagues—especially baseball—to restrict use of photos taken at games:

MLB backing down on trying to limit online photo galleries and use of content on sibling web sites, makes things a little bearable.

More details here, from the AP Sports Editors. Good work by the editors who stood up to fight this insanity.
