From reading didn't they pay money for it? If I'm misreading stuff and they just picked it up, my opinion MIGHT change, but even then picking up something that does not belong to you and using it for personal gain isn't exactly legal / ethical.
I understand and applaud journalistic freedom of speech, but I'm sick and tired of journalists thinking they can do anything they want to because "it's their job".
