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

I'm not too clever so please bear with me.

Can you refer to an article you have read and the date it was published? Can you paraphrase the article and cover the salient points?

Can you suggest that someone read it?

I think we have them scared!!!!!!

OTOH, I've got no clue why any site would refuse to accept the extra hits they would be getting if there were a link in an article on FR to their site.

their loss I guess.

As a workaround for the "expired or altered link" problem, I suggest that if an article is especially interesting to you, you cut and paste a copy into a Word document and file it in your own archives. It's not perfect but it can be a valuable comparative archive copy should the piece mysteriously change or disappear.

I'm astounded that jewishworldrevew is on this list.
The editor is one of the good guys.

Yes he is. A couple of years ago he nicely asked us not to post full articles, but do excerpts so he would get hits on his website.

FR gladly obliged him.

With subscriptions plummeting, you think some of these would be happy they were even being noticed.

Oh well.

Acknowledged, will comply.

Note to self; don't renew PC Magazine when it's expired; plenty of others to subscribe to that will allow posts to FR.

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

===

I think this is where Fair Use just has to come in. They can't dictate to us, not to use an excerpt or discuss their articles.

Got it.

Does this mean that excerpting won't be done for the poster?

Makes you go "Hmmmm" when some of these organizations don't want people to discuss their writings (AIM.org, antiwar.com, etc.).

Rats and roaches hide when the light of truth shines.

I wonder if these "do not excerpt" writers have made the same demand of Rush Limbaugh.
