It seems like a lot of companies are creating strategies to find the people most willing to cheat themselves to get any exposure whatsoever. Considering that I've had my images of events ripped off by for-profit blogs, these firms seem pretty damned ruthless. Unfortunately, a lot of start-up photogs aren't really aware of what their craft's worth, and their ignorance plus various companies' willingness to accept their work is putting the squeeze on some really top-notch shutterbugs.
