I wonder how that could affect people who post exerpts from articles on here?

I always thought that the copyright laws allowed you to post 10% of the article and provide a link. Not sure about the pictures though...

When I asked CNN they replied that quoting a sample of the article and giving a link would be OK. They also asked about the scope of the site, viewers, pay/non profit, etc.

 

A lesson we learned from Watergate, follow the money. If I'm making more profit out of your content than you are, there is going to be trouble. Sites like this, and there are so many, will not be targeted until Jason hits the Forbes list and has groupies.
