Please post excerpts and links only from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
I will work up and post an updated list of our forbidden/excerpt & link only site list as soon as I can.
Thanks,
Jim

Please post excerpts and links only from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Ditto, thanks for the heads-up.
Jim, you might as well add The Toledo Blade and any other media outlets owned and controlled by the Block Family. I think the corporate parent is called something like "Block Communications" or "Blade Communications". Same outfit owns the Post-Gazette. Needless to say, they're a bunch of libs.

Sometimes I wonder if they whine about their words being posted only because they figured out how stupid they sound and are afraid of the exposure.
But, will comply.
No use getting a lawsuit fired at us about it.

NO!
Ignore that, that's too close to what the Libs would do.

Received another very nice reply from the Post-Gazette. They originally asked for a removal of the posts in question. I asked if excerpts and links would be acceptable. They said excerpts and links would be fine and thanked us for bringing attention to their paper (though some of it is negative).
We have had a couple others (The Onion for example) that would not even allow excerpts. They wanted Links only. Yeah, right. Just doesn't make much sense to post a title and link only. Doesn't leave much to discuss. LOL
To: Jim Robinson
Many NewsMax articles are simply rewrites of other paper's reports: "According to AP, etc. etc."
"Furthermore, the Pittsburgh Picayune reports that all eggs are not created equal. They say etc. etc."
To: Jim Robinson
check our logs... see if they are sending a robot that is ignoring our robots text * deny all spec.
and then sue them for illegal spidering.
or perhaps you could bait the spider... and have a freephacker code a spider nest booby trap for it.

To the Pits Post Gazette......I CEASED recieving your newspaper when I lived in Pittsburgh,opting for the Tribune. I will now CEASE to recieve your Sunday paper that I have delivered out of state here in WV. I'll call first thing in the a.m.
To: Jim Robinson
No sweat, Jim.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is roughly as well-written and informative as the Daily Collegian out of Penn State. Just as liberal, too. These are people who can't get real jobs so they "write" for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. No loss.
