Nothing. You're breaking stories that mainstream newspaper reporters in Florida are too lazy or too biased to follow. I just wish that I could start a thread and draw freepers' attention to some of your great stories - - especially the one about Greet denying protection to a desperate woman. You're obviously a tough cookie. Keep doing what you're doing - but you ought to consider allowing freepers to post your articles - at least a headline plus a short excerpt.
where you been. Everytime there's a new article at The Empire Journal, I personally come to FR and post the new link and the title. Certain regular FReepers have asked for and obtained permission to publish excerpts from the articles and they are all allowed to put up links to any of the articles at any time. Anyone can read any of the articles (unless the hacker takes them and then you'll just have to wait for us to repub them) by going to www.theempirejournal.com. We have certainly shared our work and judging from the number of people reading our site everyday, we are being read worldwide. By maintaining control, we can keep track of who's reading what when, especially governmental agencies. It's our material, our work and I personally don't think we're wrong to want to maintain control and ownership of it. Intellectual property is no different that other property, would you want anybody to be able to take your car when they wanted to or come onto your property whenever they chose? Our articles represent personal property.
