Jill Greenberg Dropped by Photo Agency

The Vaughan Hannigan photo agency, which has represented the disgraced, excrement-obsessed photoshopper Jill Greenberg, has just dropped her from its client list. Bill Hannigan, who runs the agency, told me a few minutes ago that Greenberg and the agency had "different views on how to conduct business." He said he couldn't say anything more because he is "still sorting out some issues with Jill related to her contract."

Vaughan Hannigan has done the right thing, of course, and not only because it's best not to represent photographers who deceive their clients, but because the damage Greenberg has done to her fellow photographers is tremendous. ...

I know nothing of the photography business, but I had thought that all photos taken during a hired session, belonged to the person hiring the Photographer, in this case The Atlantic Journal.

That depends on the agreement between the photographer, the representing company (if any) and the client.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Jill.  You might end up crying like those poor children you terrorized in order to spread your retarded Republican-hating garbage.
