Bloomberg doesn’t even allow excerpts on FR. They’re FReepin’ Eyeholes.

They own the content, it is their creation and thus, they can choose not to give it away for free. I would suggest grabbing a copy of Atlas Shrugged and give it a good read over the weekend.

Oh I see where your problem is...

You are under the mistaken impression that this is about "law".

This is about politics and money. Bloomberg will drag FR into court. Legally you may have done it right but that matters not. They will make FR pony up legal fees and court time. Same as the RIAA drug Mom's and Dad's into court and run up huge legal fees. Its a bullying tactic.

Copyright......... It matters not as they have asked not to publish anything. Is that not their right?

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

altoonaherald.com
altpressonline.com
americanpolitics.com
antiwar.com
bloomberg.com
