Should mainstream media pay bloggers?
A long argument from Michelle Malkin for why mainstream media should pay to use materials found in the blogosphere.
But I need to understand this.
If the mainstream press cites blog comments, then should the payment not go to readers instead of the blogger(s)? After all, most self-respecting bloggers tell their readers that they retain copyright over their comments, don’t they?
Anybody with a sharp legal brain, please weigh in with your expertise. Thanks.
