I have thousands of copyrighted photographs. Use them without my permission and I'll issue a cease and desist letter, too. Continue to use them without paying me contracted royalties and I'll sue. Its the capitalistic, entrepeneuring, free enterprise, American way.

Also, I'm taking the exact same position as JimRob. Got a problem with it, take it up with Jim. The copyrighted intellectual property belongs to the Onion. They WORKED for it. They earn a living from it. It belongs to them. They said we can't use it. What makes you think you can abuse copyright law? ALL they ask is for you to enjoy their material from THEIR website. Comply!

If you think you own the fruit of my labor or The Onion's labor, you must be some sort of damn anti-American communist. Take yerself for a long walk on a short pier.

Ahem, the Georgia Tech graphic on your FR home page is copyrighted!

Did you ask them if you could use it?

You stupid moron.

You aren't taking the position of JR.

JR didn't say a peep about this until the letter.

Have you posted any articles on FR? If so, you are a hypocrite.

If you even post a response to the articles, you are a hypocrite.

By being on this very site you are a hypocrite because you clearly don't hold to your principles that posting copyrighted material online is wrong if you hang out with us 'sinners.'
