Title: istock photos on Fox News
Post by: red on November 11, 2010, 01:12
Fox News is using istock photos for some of their slideshow articles. This is the first time I've noticed it, but they may have been using them for some time. See -

I wonder if they are one of the "big spending" corporations who are getting their credits for $.47.

I think they should remove your forum ban to provide some peace to your soul.

Hahaha. I wouldn't necessarily say my soul would be at peace, because iStock has no influence on my soul, but what would make me feel rather satisfied is when iStock's contributors and buyers desert them, their sales start to plunge and they fail in an epic way from all their money grabs. Yes, that would be quite satisfying.

But posting on their forums,meh, I could care less about that. Except maybe the Designer forum. I like the other designers that post there.
