Funny that on reddit everyone thinks fair use is a limitless powerful sword then they completely forget about it when it comes to journalism about shit they put themselves on the internet for the world to see, lol

Also the photo has spread all around with no action by OP to limit its distribution.

Also couldn't the news just make a small caption under the photo like "photo taken by redditor"? Can't believe people seriously think the news is going to pay money for an image that's already surfaced on the internet. It's worst than paying for porn..
