How is it theft? It’s his own commentary.

"How is it theft? It’s his own commentary."

If a website demands a full article without paying then it is theft. Its why FR got sued by several of the bigger newspapers.

Now for some reason only certain BIG media outlets are expected to be excerpted. If one posts an excerpt of a well written blog or small website its looked down upon. The irony is contained in Humbles post he demands full articles posted of FR from sites he deems unworthy and then mentions it is theft because it is free advertisement.

Strange when you consider it all.
