These tend to be fishing expeditions for free publicity
stuff. Sure enough, rule 8:
"The BBC reserves the right to publicly display all entries
and to publish any images to promote the BBC, and/or the
photography competition. Copyright will remain with the photographer."
So it gets free use of your picture in perpetuity.
Copyright's not a load of good if you don't get paid for use
of it. I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't paying horrific
amounts of money to goons for sitting in suits and reading autocues.
Damn right. They should take their suits off.
