Lets say somebody on this board got into a fight somewheres and I happen to have a video camera and record it. Now let's say I want to sell the images to the local paper.
Is my paper most likely to buy... A frame from the beginning of the vid where our member is trying to talk his way out of a fight?
A frame from the end of the vid where our member is calling 911 and staying on the scene to make sure things work out?
A frame where our members fist is stuffed right up into some guys gob and the blood and spit is flying left and right?


Now take that little scenario, multiply by 150,000 plus soldiers and 3-4,000 photographers all running around trying to get a Pulitzer.
