Steve there are numerous issues.... the biggest are copyright issues ( who owns the photos, who is the photographers, or the film companies who owns the films the clips are taken from)

Then there is the issue of the right of exploitation... Celebs and other famous people have to be compesnated when their images are used. They have to be contracted ( model release) to use their images...

The people who run the celeb sites have all kinds of excuses, but they are primarily fiction...

From what I understand it is Norm Zedah suing them under the RICO act...
