It is against the law for Joe to take and sell a recognizable

what is your source?
The National Enquirer.

(And the Star, and Us Weekly, and The Globe...)

You're referring to pictures of public figures ?
The courts have rules that public figures can't pick and choose which "image" they want to portray. Private peeople though, can, and a photographer must get a persons release to use their image for commerical purposes. I assume this is why there are so many faces "blurred out" in Cops....
