Righthaven Lawsuits: A Chilling Effect on the Blogosphere? - Big Journalism
"The Las Vegas Review-Journal has contracted with a company called Righthaven.
Righthaven sues web sites that they say are violating the copyright laws by sharing the R-J stories.
No warning, no request to take down the material, no shot across the bow—it’s nuclear right out of the box.
Virtually every other newspaper across the country asks “offending” web sites to just take down the material, and lawsuits are used only as a last resort."
