Unlike The AP, It Looks Like Reuters Recognizes The Future
,----[ Quote ]
| While it hasn't gone that far, a talk given by Reuters' Editor in Chief,
| David Schlesinger, to the International Olympics Committee Press Commission
| on rethinking journalism suggests Reuters recognizes the future a lot more
| clearly than the AP, and is looking to embrace it fully, rather than block
| it, like the AP.

'Free' plagiarism charge frames Internet content debate
,----[ Quote ]
| The debate over Wikipedia offers a fascinating window onto the various ways
| the Internet is changing how we compile and access information. This is the
| larger issue at the heart of Anderson's writing: "The Long Tail" was an
| exploration of niche culture, the Internet's tendency to encourage a glorious
| cacophony of fragmentation, while "Free" looks at what Anderson
| calls "freeconomics," an open-source model in which data is the common
| currency.

Who owns the facts? The AP and the "hot news" controversy
,----[ Quote ]
| In 1918, the Supreme Court created a "hot news" quasi-property right that
| still exists in some places today, and the Associated Press has been
| threatening to take on the blogosphere with it. Ars digs into the "hot news"
| historical archive to explain why the idea has always been controversial.

Is Anything In Shepard Fairey's Image Actually Copyrightable By The AP?
,----[ Quote ]
| of copyright infringement over his iconic Barack Obama poster (Fairey
| initiated the actual lawsuit, asking for a declaratory judgment that his
| image did not infringe, but that was after the AP publicly stated they were
| going to go after him for infringement), many are looking over the legal
| issues, and examining whether or not Fairey's use is fair use. In our initial
| post on the subject, it seemed pretty obvious that it was fair use, in large
| part because the AP didn't even realize it was an AP photo until someone else
| pointed it out -- suggesting that it was a transformative work, which
| represents a big part of the "test" for fair use.
