EWWW! I do, however, enjoy going to other sites and tearing them apart with their own words according to my personal little battles with them.

It's quite the addiction I have.

Thank you for finally giving us an easily searchable list of the pubs we must excerpt. Saving to disk, bookmarking and tattooing on my left palm for easy reference.

In that case, I'd excerpt it to Lott's site. Why give LAT more hits?

My point exactly. Not everything that's printed in LATimes, especially op-eds, are actually owned by them.

I'll never give them a hit. If they want Mr. Lott's material exclusively, then pay him for exclusive rights!

Here is the DU guidance:

Don't post entire copyrighted articles. If you wish to reference an article, provide a brief excerpt and include a link to the original source. Generally, excerpts should not exceed three or four paragraphs.

So if we do a bit of selective excerpting in the original post, and those who reply are judicious about quoting, the gist of the article can be posted without violating the agreements 'rules'..

Thanks..

Here's a valuable resource for those interested in copyright and fair use:

Stanford University Copyright and Fair Use Overview

http://fairuse.stanford.edu/Copyright_and_Fair_Use_Overview/index.html

Many other college and university Web sites also cover copyright in order to provide guidelines for their students.

Finally, I would urge everybody to read the Free Republic Terms of Use Agreement.

My conclusion is that the only safe course is to excerpt everything except that which is obviously in the public domain.

Damn! I had no idea the list was so extensive. Do the liberal propaganda publishers LA Times and the Washington Post own everything????

"excerpts should not exceed three or four paragraphs."

Ha, ha. That's not for efficiency, that's to keep their pointy little heads from overheating.
