In the over broad interpretation of commerciality that I've seen promulgated by some msiumes lately, if I were publishing a newspaper I doubt I'd print any news item about the zoo if it included photos, and that said if it didn't "bleed" I would publish that. Using the story and photo as promotion for my Newspaper would violate their "rule".
