Let me get this straight, you charge me $9 to get contact emails for various journalists? What if I decide to contact them and also reveal how I got it? Did they consent to this? I would certainly not be comfortable with the fact that someone is selling my email address.

I don't see a problem with that. You're welcome to spend time on google yourself to find their contact details or you can just get them here. Time is precious for most entrepreneurs. There is no private information there.

We just wanted to make a useful tool and if it's something people find useful there are endless directions to take this in. :)

There's quite a few businesses out there who sell your email or "rent access" to your address for marketing purposes, both B2C and B2B. In that case, it's just a narrower targeted list of folks.
