DLFIPL - Media may boycott the IPL
BCCI and IPL have claimed sole copyright for all the images and pictures clicked by media persons and journalists during cricket matches. They haved the media organisations to upload all such pictures on to the official website of the IPL. This new clause has made the media organisations to see red. Most newspapers and channels have online editions and not being able to upload the pictures clicked by them on to their websites is a serious handicap for the online editions.
If these petty clauses are not removed the media is planning to boycott the event. Restricting our freedom to report the event as they see it has not endeared the IPL and BCCI to the media organisations.
