Here is a post from one of their directors:According to several board members, the proposed regulation pertains to non-press photographers, not press photographers with credentials. Apparently, the ordinance seems to be targeted to every Tom, Dick and Harry and Jane, Mary and Sue who think they are the next big indie filmmaker a la Michael Moore or YouTube sensation and decide to set up on any old street with lots of equipment and helpers and block pedestrian and sometimes vehicular traffic and create a safety hazard. Since this situation is not related to professional photojournalists, NPPA probably does not belong getting involved with this. However, that said, board members are aware of this situation and are monitoring it so that if it does present an issue to professional photojournalists, NPPA will respond appropriately when and if necessary.
