AP launches campaign against Internet "misappropriation"


We'd better hope it's not "hot news" that the Associated Press announced "an aggressive effort to track down copyright violators on the Internet" at its annual board meeting Monday. If it is, we could conceivably find ourselves on the wrong end of an "aggressive effort" geared to fend off copycat competition and "misappropriation" in the dwindling market for timely reporting.
