Gawker Media´s Consumerist Steals Again Photos, Now From Getty Images

This time not from Flickr, like they did ten days ago and publicly admitted the theft through Consumerist´s editor Ben Popken.

Instead they steal now a watermark protected image from Getty Images for a story on CompUSA, written again by mastermind Ben Popken. Thanks John for the hint, but I somehow don´t buy that "Getty opts not to pursue the infringement, because it's a free ad on a really popular site whereby their name appears prominently".
