Unfortunately the term "wire photo" is frequently misapplied and used where the more generic "news photo" or "press photo" would be more appropriate.
I find it humorous when applied to 1920's or earlier photos that were produced before the wire photo process was actually invented, and have even seen established auction houses who should know better misuse the term. All the more reason to learn for yourself what to look for and rely on that rather than relying on the seller's description.
