i'm not challenging whether or not they have the right...

i think they have the right in public places to do so...

I'm questioning whether or not the fact that celeb A took a shit today is in fact news...I also think that the means in which they use to get these shots should be questioned. For instance photographing a moving vehicle is dangerous (just ask Lady Di)

i think the journalistic right is valid but that what constitutes journalism could be up for grabs...

pap is also pretty well known for bending the rules and using private photos as well

these are the things i question about journalistic rights and the large umbrella of what constitutes journalism
