  You use the term papparazzi as if it were a perjorative term. Do you have
a problem with aggressive entrepeneural photojournalist earning a living???

  -------
  Oh, what the hell.....

  I will admit to seeing papparazzi as a somewhat pejorative term....You may
call haunting and hunting down celebrities "photojournalism," I call it
hunting down celebrities and exploiting for a buck...On the other hand, why
are the celebrities celebrities, and would they continue to be so if they
weren't hunted down by paparazzi?

  However, I would suggest that a Ron Gellela (sp?) is a paparazzi, not a
photo journalist. Carol Guzzy is a photojournalist, not a paparazzi. Big
difference.
