Rite Aid, Eckerd Ban Shock as Photographer Calls Off Settlement, Launches Protest Site
More controversy for Hachette’s Shock. Michael Yon, the photographer who sued the magazine for using a photo he took of a war-torn soldier on its cover without permission, then agreed to a settlement — has backed out of that settlement and has now launched a Web site urging a protest against the magazine, its advertisers, distributors and Hachette executives.
