You are free to react any way you'd like.

All the Onion wants is for their work to be read from their website. That's how they get paid - web hits and exposure to their online store. Its still free to read and enjoy. A perfectly reasonable policy.

But honestly, if anyone sounds like an uptight, bunch of sour grape pouty babies, its the Freepers whining because they've been asked not to abuse a copyright.

Grow up.

You have a good point, but if every website had such a policy, FR would cease to exist. At least in any recognizable form.

I just advised friends who I turned on the Onion (along with several other sites ) to look at this thread. Any decision is up to them. I'm not going to start a flame war.

And they're going to get a lot less of that because of their stupid control-freak ways. Simple as that.
