LAS VEGAS – A company has sued Republican U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle, claiming she reprinted two Las Vegas Review-Journal articles on her campaign website without permission.

Las Vegas-based Righthaven is seeking unspecified damages in its complaint filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas.

The suit alleges Angle neither sought nor received permission to display a Review-Journal article and editorial on her website this summer.

An Angle spokesman says he would not comment until the campaign's lawyers have reviewed the suit.

Righthaven tracks Internet traffic for copyright infringements of Review-Journal stories. It then buys the copyright for a story from the newspaper's owner, Stephens Media LLC, and sues the alleged infringer.

Now there is a racket and a half.

it should be interesting to see if a court or jury rules on damages, or if the posting went beyond faie use. ive read w/ interest all the details of how fr problems with copyright lawsuits involving newspapers. i understand why a publisher wouldn't want their content used unauthorized. it is, afterall, their property.although a lil inconvenient, i wouldn't have a problem linking to stories instead of posting the whole thing.

Most sites do the excerpt thing. I know some even say no more than 10%.

mike rivero at whatreallyhappened.com only links to articles & he has one of the most popular alternative sites. which proves copying others work is simply not necessary. in this age of dwindling newspaper sales, im surprised more don't charge for content & heavily police unauthorize usage. its a business, & their product, so i wouldn't blame them.
