List of Gannett publications that cannot be posted to Free Republic per their copyright complaint

To: mcg1969; Jim Robinson

"Thanks Jim.
Being somewhat new here, is there any facility on this site that automatically scans the publication title to make sure the rules are being followed?
It sure would be rather cumbersome for us to scan a list like this every time we post a news article." - mcg1969

Jim keeps a UPDATED list of the bad guys HERE:

Yep, our registered Registered did a great one on this logo.

He came up with this in a minute or so after he made this comment and I said what a great tagline that would be.

"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..." - Jim Robinson

"I like that idea. They gonna read the entire web looking for someone who plagarized them with cut and paste? "

I suspect its an organized effort and there will be ill willed lurkers doing just that.

Pardon me, but I'm not sure I follow. I get the emailing this article to a friend part, and then saving the email and article to separate files.

But to post it to FR, wouldn't that still require a paraphrasing effort? As somebody suggested, op-eds will be practically impossible.

Glad I asked! Just trying to help out, ya know I can't understand the objection to abstracting an article and providing a link, that is just mean petty BS, IMHO.

OK idea 1 didn't work, so I'll think a little longer, but there as GOT to be a way of electronically archiving articles published in the public domain. So researchers can access them, I can understand content providers wanting the hits, that's fine, but archiving, for historical purposes serves a greater good, perserving the truth, or at least the truth of what was said/writen when.
