Footie photo lockout

The BBC reports that UK newspapers may be locked out of Premier League football matches if the league and publishers can not reach a deal on when the newspapers will post photos on the web. Lockout fear over football rights

The newspapers have been renegotiating a deal with the FA Premier League and Football League over access to matches.

The Newspaper Publishers' Association claims DataCo, for the leagues, wants a delay before photos go out on digital outlets, like newspaper websites.

Without a deal, papers fear they may be barred from all 92 grounds by Monday.
