Deadline Detroit got a national shout-out Sunday from the Washington Times.
In a report about the possibilities of using drone cameras in journalism, Jennifer Harper writes:
Deadline Detroit... has already used footage made by "Tretch5000," an anonymous hobbyist who used a camera-mounted drone to peek inside abandoned housing and old civic buildings, producing a telling video vignette."
Shameless self promotion aside, Harper also asks important ethical questions about journodrones. How should the Federal Aviation Administration regulate personal drone use? And what happens when TMZ gets one?
You can see the video that started it all (below), and footage of other drone cam excursions here.
