Is FR going to pay Michael Snyder, too?
Snyder will be paid when he gets a direct hit to his webpage. Otherwise, someone who reprints or otherwise copies his work (the Reverend) should either pay him directly, or get his permission to copy it, usually with a fee.
Do you not understand how writers work? Some authors get paid by the article they write. Some get paid by the number of words. My son was a writer for a time. He got paid for his articles separately, but also got paid for when someone clicked on his article at that website. Kind of like royalties in the music industry. It’s someone else’s intellectual property.
Whoever wrote the original article should be the one who is compensated the
most. I hope that is happening with this blog, but I honestly don’t think it is. Unfortunately, the Reverend doesn’t respond to posts or private mail inquiries.
Well, and Jim Robinson should be compensated too, for hosting this amazing website. All posters should be donating to FR, especially someone who blogpimps. JMHO. YMMV.
