Talk:Tail from Air France jet recovered from Atlantic Ocean

The image in use on this article is sooo gone!

Look at it on Commons, look at the credit on it, this will get deleted. Not only that it should never, ever have been used on Wikinews by our own criteria. It's from a competing news agency FFS! --Brian McNeil / talk 07:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm not convinced. Look again. It's freely released by that news agency. Also, if we allow others to use our free content, what's wrong with our use of another's freely released content? Our 'never use content from a competing news agency' thing only covers fair use, but this is free use. Blood Red Sandman (Talk)   (Contribs) 10:42, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The discussion seems to be heading to keep with the Commoners doing the digging on this. --Brian McNeil / talk 11:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I noticed this too. All the articles I have read say it was taken by the Brazilian Air Force, and released in a hand out. What bothers me is that all these news agencies, AFP, AP etc, print these images and expect us to believe that they have a helicopter there on top of the rescuers taking pictures. In reality they are on the island the debris is going to yet they claim copyright on these images. DragonFire1024 (Talk to the Dragon) 11:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Note that Agência Brasil do not claim they took the photo, they clearly state it was taken by "Divulgação Aeronáutica". Any attribution on the news article should do likewise. Thanks/Wangi (talk) 12:43, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
