Fellow lurkers and posters, I have a question; what are the laws/rules regarding reprinting an article?
Here is my specific example: Let's say I had a weekly newspaper and saw an interesting article on the web and wanted to reprint it in it's entirety. Could I do this as long as I gave proper credit to the source? If so, what would stop everyone from doing this on a regular basis? What would the repercussions be?
Just curious and thank you for your help in advance. If you don't want to post your reply but have some ideas, please send me a pm.
