Well, Mr. Ted Koppel, I, for one, would like to hear your
response to my contention you pimped your reputation for integrity to
ABC News/Disney Corporation in order to steal the life work of a
freelance journalist. And then accepted a Peabody award for, well for
doing exactly what, really?
This week has been a tad distracting, but I
very much appreciate the overwhelmingly positive and supportive
commentary from colleagues from around the globe over my objection to
Ted Koppel and Nightline and ABC News, owned by the Disney Corporation,
stealing my photographs, video, and exclusive eyewitness reports of Pol
Pot, the cumulative result of more than a decade of my journalistic
efforts, and ABC’s egregious violation of basic journalistic ethics and
integrity by trying to take credit for that work, despite not having a
single ABC employee assigned to all of South east Asia.
ABC
TV stolen still pictures, in which they place four separate credits
claiming this picture was taken by them and they had rights to
distribute it. Note that, despite there not being an employee of ABC
news located in Southeast Asia at the time, there is no credit to the
photographer of the picture
