What we've seen very clearly with fair use is that you end up being forced to defend it, as opposed to it being presumed. That means it's very easy for a rightsholder with money to go after every use, fair or not, and force the user to spend time and money defending themselves (and also probably face a preliminary injunction that takes the image down until the case is over, which will often be after its newsworthy).
