If we don't link to them, honestly how are they ever going to know? Just paraphrase their stupid stories, and don't attribute.

Obviously they have had an eye on FR. Can't see why they wouldn't check back from time to time. JimRob should be free of legal hassles over this. The moderators are going to have their hands full trying to keep Gannett's alligators in their swamps.

Well, that's why I said to paraphrase.

We're all (even bad republicans) allowed to paraphrase anything our hearts' desire!

There's no need for a link, but yes, we should attribute it, if it's something that is unique to whatever site we're looking at. I shouldn't have said don't attribute.

But no need to link if it's a paraphrase.

I'm just pretty steamed about this. Especially since I found 2 articles posted _in full_ from sites we're not allowed to do the same from, the WaPo, and the LAT. One was at that chimp site, and the other at DUH. One didn't even have a link!
