Legit? Seems like you become a member and you can get press credentials. Are they any good?? Also noticed if you enroll in NYIP you also get press credentials. How does one get them from local newspapers? The IFPO is known as the "International Fraudulent Photographer's Organization" among legitimate photojournalists. The only purpose they serve is to separate the gullible from his money and make money for IFPO. John

I was turned down at the front gate for a media pass so I went to the "media office" and was again refused, until I expalined that I drove 4hrs to shoot for a friend that was racing. When I mentioned his name and number, and offered to go get him to verify it, they gave me the pass which I put in my pocket but not once did I have to show it. I acted like I belonged and there were not any questions. Mike R
