Scoopshot is a bad idea.

I just saw a link to the website Scoopshot a way for mobile photographers to upload their images so that they can be used by news organizations. So now an army of people with a cell phone camera can descend on a Spot News event and snap away. You might even make a few bucks.

Sorry, but if you come across an accident or house fire do what you can to help someone out. Even most full-time paid photojournalists are people first and photographers second.

If you don't know how to help then get out of the way of the people who know what they are doing.

My thoughts on the matter.
