Okay, my question is this.

What about other news sources that say “from the Associated Press”?

Such, as say, something from the Omaha World-Herald, and its source is listed as the Associated Press?

This has got to be a real nuisance for you guys, and I don’t plan on contributing to it.

I think the Omaha World-Herald would pay AP.

It certainly couldn’t/woudn’t pass through the fees.

Take FOX: probably 1/4 of it breaking news links are derived from AP. They’ll pass these costs to their advertisers.

That’s a good question. I see a lot of AOL or Yahoo! articles, for example, that have come from the AP.

I thought we couldn’t post directly from the AP (hostedap.org) already?
