Photographer Jay Maisel Extorts (Opinion) $32,500 Out of Andy Baio

I was disappointed this morning to read about a legal settlement of $32,500 that Andy Baio chose to pay to photographer Jay Maisel. Do you know Jay Maisel? Apparently, he’s the photographer that owns and lives in the 35,000 square foot $30-$50 million mansion in New York City (according to wikipedia). Apparently if you mail him a check for $5,000 he’ll actually let you come inside the mansion for one of his photography workshops.
