Note: Don't post anything at all from the Las Vegas Review Journal or anything from organizations run by Stevens Media, LLC or RightHaven, LLC until the lawsuit brought against us by them is resolved.

Here's an updated alphabetical list of the sites that have complained about copyright violations thus far. The posting program will only allow excerpts and or deny posting where designated from the following sites:

These sites must be excerpted and linked only [300 words or less, 1/2 the words or less for short articles]:

All McClatchy sources must be excerpted and linked.

These publishers have asked us not to allow any material at all to be posted to FR:

05/06/04 -

Received another letter from Gannett Publications, publisher of USAToday, and several other newspapers. Due to contractual arrangements they have with third-party content providers, they have denied our request to allow posting of excerpts. They will only allow the posting of titles and links.

Please do not post full text or even excerpts from the following Gannett Web sites:

GANNETT NEWSPAPERS ON THE WEB:

We will eventually add a link to this list from our posting program. In the meantime, you can find it by searching on "copyright list."


In addition to all of the above, do not post articles written by Maralyn Lois Polak per her copyright complaint. Her column usually appears on WorldNetDaily.

Also, do not post images from Corbis or Getty.

Thanks,

Jim

********Additional

New York Times must be excerpted.

All material from the Associated Press must be excerpted regardless of source (very brief excerpts). AP photos are not allowed.

This is a list of people who are ashamed of what they publish. The idea that what they write and publish can be archived, is absolutely abhorrent to them.

They count upon the short attention span of most Americans and hope that nobody will do a factual check at a later date.

We may not post the full text from these sources on Free Republic, but what you do with your own computer is a different matter.

Like a Vampire, they are terrified of being exposed to the light.

Archive, archive, archive!

I decided I didn't want to spend the rest of my live in depositions and court hearings, etc. Not to mention the fact that I don't have the financial resources necessary to fight these people all the way to the supreme court anyway.

Did you read the article on atzlan about the four American security specialists killed in Iraq? It says, in part...

The four US mercenaries that met a cruel death in Iraq today were selling their services to the oil companies for a few bucks a month. The Iraqi people who killed them were defending their land from foreign invaders determined to loot their oil.

Anti-Americanism at its worst.

To not even be able to use an excerpt, link to, or even mention particular articles from certain papers is totally ridiculous.

I glanced around the site and saw that headline along with the down-right giddy article about Mexico beating the USA in soccer and the one demanding George Bush return Pancho Villa's skull (I didn't know he had it).

Well, I suppose if these sites don't want the traffic (and thus the ad revenue) we generate, then screw 'em. I'll just add them to my ignore list. No sweat off my b.. err back...

Check out this one too..

Sec. 107. - Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use
Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include -

FR Has ALWAYS been about research, criticism and commentary. This is too weird.

I would HONORED to have anything of mine critiqued on FR. Even if I was a lib, I wouldn't care. It's publicity. Some people can't take the heat!

"...I didn't want to spend the rest of my live in depositions and court hearings..."

I can appreciate that, and it's not like sticking your finger into Justin Raimando's eye is going to advance any of your goals with your FreeRepublic website.

On the other hand, being subject to frivolous lawsuits is more a matter of being alive and breathing, rather than having actually committed any kind of civil wrong. In the end, each person has to decide for himself where to draw the line between threats of lawsuits and their own personal goals.

Apparently this also means that you can't buy a newspaper, and sit around a break room with your co-workers and read and discuss the articles, either.

I expect a crackdown on this obvious violation of Fair Use...

This is pretty bad.....they can report, but we can't discuss. OKAY...

There was a thread awhile ago, in which someone quoted a so called anti-freeper...who had written to a news website that had a poll on it. The gist of it was "dear website you have officially been freeped". They proceeded to explain why...and if I recall correctly, the website explained how the poll was tilted as a result.

I'm totally convinced that people that don't like FR write and complain to every single source used for discussion..hoping to get a negative reaction towards FR.

It is ridiculous...these folks have no business savvy whatsoever...they should want all the traffic they can muster, and if they can stir up a controversy on a FReeper thread, all the better!!
