You were saying ...

It should be noted that on EVERY article on every page at the Las Vegas Review Journal, they have links at the bottom to share the story on Facebook, Twitter, etc.

That's not sharing the entire article though. It's impossible to do that through their sharing link that they provide for Facebook. If you try it, you'll see that nothing more than about maybe 50 words or so come through on the sharing. Sometimes, in a long paragraph, you don't even get just the "one" paragraph.

So, this is not what they are talking about. It would appear to me that they are talking about sharing the entire article, and a lot of newspapers (on our excerpt list here) don't want that done.

Facebook automatically clips everything you send in through that method (i.e., a "Facebook button" on the webpage of the news agency) so that's why they don't care about that.

Thanks for the ping S.T.
They’ll use every trick to try to shut us down.
