NFL Tells Photography Group: Vests With Ads Will Stay
By jason - up to 2007 (archived) • Aug 21st, 2007 • Category: News for Creatives (archives)In reference to a previous post about Sports Photographers wearing Ads on their vests, Brandweek gives us the update:
“The National Football League is apparently standing firm in its plan to require sideline photographers to wear vests with ad logos this season, according to the National Press Photographers Association, which has led the opposition to the plan, claiming it represents a conflict for photographers.
NPPA also dismissed the idea of an organized boycott of games, according to NPPA Vice President Jack Zibluk, who said in an e-mail to Editor & Publisher that “Our problem with a boycott is that it could play into the hands of the NFL in the long run. Boycotting wouldn’t cause a coverage blackout. The only photographers left would be the ones favored by the NFL.”
