Already protestors are attempting to force this issue and demanding the deletion of news photos from public protests. Shame on the NPPA.
The NPPA is backing a position that challenges the basic concept of right of privacy versus first amendment rights.

Journalists have fought long and hard to protect their rights. The freedom of the press is under attack from all sides.

I understand that the “toolkit” is supposed 2b a suggestion, but it’s attached to the PBoR. It is being used to impact adversely how PJ’s work—it’s a public document & it, & others like it, are being quoted, cited & literally shoved in the faces of working photojournalists.
