The monetary pay-off ($20,000) has no reference. I believe it may be mistakenly referring to the amount given to Lt. Calley for an interview with Esquire Magazine (Columbia Journalism Review, "Checkbook Journalism Revisited," Jan/Feb 2008 Essay). If anyone can back up the amount given to Haeberle for his photographs, add the source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]] ([[User talk:{{{1}}}|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/{{{1}}}|contribs]])
There is no doubt he sold the pictures in 1969, for how much is another question. Green Cardamom (talk) 04:03, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Haeberle had two cameras, a color personal camera, and a B&W military camera. The color photos he sold in 1969 to Life magazine. These pictures apparently did not belong to the US military ie. he took them on his own with his own camera and did not turn them over to the military. It's unclear if the color pictures are public domain, further supported by the fact Haeberle sold the pictures to Life magazine. Yet, we treat them as government property on Wikipedia. I suspect only the B&W images are free, the color images are probably copyright. Green Cardamom (talk) 04:01, 26 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
