That's because football's organizing body, FIFA, has placed an embargo of two hours after the draw ends for posting photos on web sites, including those of newspapers.

FIFA says it needs the delay to protect its commercial contracts with licensees who spend millions for the rights to show the event live.

The world's newspapers, through the World Association of Newspapers, have been negotiating with FIFA to remove restrictions on coverage of the World Cup itself, arguing that newspaper web coverage does not threaten broadcasters and that the rules inhibit the free flow of information.

After an initial meeting with FIFA, the delay for posting photos on web sites was reduced from two hours to one after a match ends -- but the two-hour delay remains for Friday's draw.

WAN is currently in discussions with FIFA President Sepp Blatter and hopes that further progress can be made before next year's World Cup. But in the meantime, the restrictions on coverage of the draw remain.
