Note: Don't post anything at all from the Las Vegas Review Journal or anything from organizations run by Stevens Media, LLC or RightHaven, LLC until the lawsuit brought against us by them is resolved.

Here's an updated alphabetical list of the sites that have complained about copyright violations thus far. The posting program will only allow excerpts and or deny posting where designated from the following sites:

These sites must be excerpted and linked only [300 words or less, 1/2 the words or less for short articles]:

All McClatchy sources must be excerpted and linked.

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

05/06/04 -

Received another letter from Gannett Publications, publisher of USAToday, and several other newspapers. Due to contractual arrangements they have with third-party content providers, they have denied our request to allow posting of excerpts. They will only allow the posting of titles and links.

Please do not post full text or even excerpts from the following Gannett Web sites:

GANNETT NEWSPAPERS ON THE WEB:

We will eventually add a link to this list from our posting program. In the meantime, you can find it by searching on "copyright list."


In addition to all of the above, do not post articles written by Maralyn Lois Polak per her copyright complaint. Her column usually appears on WorldNetDaily.

Also, do not post images from Corbis or Getty.

Thanks,

Jim

Yep, all the main nj papers. We can still post them for now; however, they will have to be exerpted. I usually post it in msword and try to get 100 words then click the box for exerption. Automatic exerption doesn't work when I do it.

I see that Jim Rob went back to all the previous nj.com articles and exerpted them. The problem is that nj.com only keeps their links on their web site for about 14 days and that's it; otherwise you have to pay.

You remember how this website got started. It discussed the distortion in news reporting by the LA Times and the Washington Post, among other news media, surrounding the Monica Lewinsky scandal and the subsequent impeachment.

What I remember most about that era were the glaring holes in the stories by the left-of-center news media. The facts that were NOT being published or broadcast, despite being known to these self-appointed authors of the first draft of American history textbooks for generations to come, reveal their left-of-center biases like Bernard Goldberg never could.

Thanks for the ping SheLion.

Sounds like they don't want their articles scrutinized by intelligent conservative types. Most of these publications just want to deliver their propaganda to the unthinking, brainwashed masses.

I don't think us FReepers will let them stop us from discussing what needs to be discussed.

The leftist media is trying to shut out any trace of the truth. When someone posts a left lie and dissects it, the truth starts showing.

They can't have that.

this is part and parcel of the OUTLAW NAPSTER FILE SHARING and the RIAA suits, alongside the digital copyrights act. A COMMON CAUSE craze amongst liberals and conservatives.

SEVERAL decades ago, the "copyright" issue went all the way to the supreme court over making "copies" of music via audio cassette tapes. Then the issue of vhs recordings of rented videos went the same route, and the "my copyright means I am god over your ability to use my materials" crowd--- LOST again. You can legally, with the moral sanction of the law of the land and the Supremes, make a copy of any movie you want, regardless... onto a VHS tape.

With the advent of the digital age, and the ability to transfer ANY form of data; movies, music, press copy, newswire feeds and etc... an opportunity was found, whereby a NEW kind of copying could be regulated, legislated, criminalized, prosecuted... or even taxed.

This law, the digital millenium copyright act, has; along with a cadre of similar laws and enforcement techniques; been successfully used, to stifle, constrain and prosecute issues of free speech. IT was authored and championed by conservatives. And we lost our right to free and unrestricted speech, via a perversion of the fair use doctrine... that is being applied to conservative websites primarily.

We are seeing it's misapplication, and a host of other "copyright" law, perversions... all to stop downloading of music, that has NOT been proven a theft in ANY court of law.

Before long, using the principles of rights to distribution under the new perversion of the DMCA, you will soon be committing a crime if you pass YOUR newspaper(now all of which are produced digitally, via computers) on to anyone, either in whole or in part... as your paper, will be converted into a license for use by one person only.

Discussing from memory will be disallowed if your recollection is over two paragraphs, or 240 words.

And certain of the conservatives, here on this website, will applaud any movement in that direction, as being fair protection of the copyright owner's "property".

Right now, this is just about restricting conservatives from researching the content of online journalism... by fear our wellknown products here, the online "expose" of journalistic Bullcrap.

But it will, or shall I say IS expanding.
I am conservative on the war on terror, and issues of individual freedom. The digital copyright act and all the other perverse interpretations of copyright law, now being used to fuel the growth of the "don't tell others what I said" list... NEED to be challenged and defeated.

I am sorry to see that list growing Jim.
Cockroaches have found a way to make it illegal to turn the rocks over... and expose them.

the law of unforseen consequences at work in living color, digitally of course.

Jim - stupid question, but somebody's gotta ask it. Why doesn't FR just subscribe to the wires? I'm sure it's expensive, but I'm sure we monthly subscibers could pitch in a lot more if it meant we had free reign to post AP articles (let's face it - about 90% of national/international news in the local paper is direct form AP or Reuters). As an added bonus, subscribers to AP Digital have access to articles from Washington Post (and many others) through their partnership. It would be cool to give WP a big na-na-na-boo-boo when we LEGALLY post an entire WP article.

Anyway, what's the feasability of something like this?
