But that's because what you (and I) do falls under the description of news coverage, which has rather less restrictions. The rules differ somewhat from country to country, but freedom of information covers a multitude of sins. Trying to use an image from that news coverage for commercial purposes, though (even something as straightforward as selling a single print to an individual) means you have to play by a different set of rules.
