Having pondered this issue for a few days, here's my latest take on it: Reuters doesn't really care much if their photographers shoot raw or JPEG. Moreover, they're not even going to check... until there's an accusation of manipulation. That way, if there ever *is* an accusation they won't need to prove or even debate the highly contentious issues of how much manipulation was done and how much is acceptable. They'll just have to show it's not an in-camera JPEG and then dismiss the photographer.
Could be their front office has reason to doubt the ability of their photo editors to spot manipulated images & they think that accepting only "in camera" JPEGs will reduce the risk they'll get burned again. It shouldn't be that big a deal. I'm pretty sure the K-3 is not the only dual-card camera with the capability to record RAW on one card simultaneously with JPEG on the other. -- Science - Questions we may never find answers for.
