If I make a coffee table book about bikes, and a picture of you is in
there, I don't need your permission to use it. I'd likely get it anyway,
because I wouldnt want to be sued, but it's not strictly neccesary.
From an interview with the Cops producer:
Cops blurs the faces of minors and people who have explicitly asked not
to be shown and/or people who they couldn't get to sign a release.
They do it because they don't want to be sued, not because they have to.
This is prolly quite true.
I can see that CNN doesn't get everyone at the AstroDome to sign a
waiver becoz they were filmed for a Katrina story. I'm sure the media
would have put up a helluva fight/appeal if they had to get EVERYONE'S
release to show their "image"
