Uh Oh! It's Those Dangerous Amusement Parks Again!
The story from Associated Press starts out ominously:
[Quotes removed... come on guys, I don't need the AP getting on my case about copyright infringement! -J]
Here’s the URL for MSNBC [although you can probably find it elsewhere]:

Is it just me or does it seem like MSNBC is always all over these amusement park stories? It seems like every story is on MSNBC or its website.

Do what you you feel is comfortable, Jeff, but copyright law does allow for "reasonable use", much like the excerpts I posted from the SFGA accident story. Don't get spooked by the action the BLADE took recently---the radio guy was reading the paper verbatim, therefore, he was openly stealing. (If anything, I was helping MSNBC, since I only used part of the story; gave MSNBC credit; and referred people back to the MSNBC site.)
Having come from a broadcast background, I'd rather err on the side of caution. Case law is evolving right now with the use of the Internet, and I don't want to be an example.
