I've never once read a WPI article off their site.

WPI is PFT without journalistic creds or integrity.

The chess club statement made me laugh.

WPI in their wildest dreams couldn't shine PFT's shoes.

I've been a memeber of WI and the Orange Mane for years and I've never been banned. Of course I rarely visit either site but I manage to not be an ass when I do visit.

As a journalist, working for either an Associated Press newspaper or an NBC affiliate for the past 10 years, I can speak with a fair amount of authority on this subject. To refer to "media reports" without actually naming the source is perfectly acceptable. You don't have to cite every source, you have to acknowledge that it's not your own thoughts. And stealing story ideas? Give me a ****ing break. Media outlets coupy story "ideas" day in and day out. If Yahoo breaks the news that Chiefs founder Lamar Hunt rises from the grave, and ESPN does a story on it four hours later, did they steal the idea? **** that.

I don't care if he didn't write word for word what the poster did, he took someone else's material and pushed it off as his own. You put "media reports" when you are competing with the other site. Does Claythan really think he's competing with Adam Schefter? It's very, very poor form.

Further, I've gone on record and stick to it that while Clayton is a decent columnist (he has a lot of work to do to get good, but there's a good amount of talent there), he's a HORRIBLE journalist. All that said, he did nothing wrong. In this particular instance, he might have done himself, his readers and WPI's website better by writing an intro paragraph and linking to Schefter's article, but the fact is from a news ethics standpoint, he is not in the wrong. |

Considering both Schefter's and Arrowhead Pride's material are copyrighted, there are legitimate grounds for a lawsuit....

All I know is when people were posting articles over here from WPI, Claythan got his ****ing thong bunched. I'd love to see what those ****ing losers would do if someone took their information and called it their own.

So if you posted information about something, and someone, who charges for access to their articles tried to pass it off on their own, it wouldn't be a big deal?

I agreed that I thought both he and his readers would be better served to have gone about it in a different way, which indicates that I agree he could have used better "form," but it doesn't change the fact that he didn't do anything wrong. Frankly, if I were writing the story and I chose to go the route he did, I would have left my byline off the article. But then, if it'd been my website or the people working under me in my department, I would have rather we written a preview paragraph and linked to the article, in this instance using our news site as an aggregator of sorts, unless the source were my direct competition. |
