Slashdot | Besieged Movie Industry Suffers Record Takings
Topic: Miscellaneous 3:16 pm EDT, Jul  7, 2004

] It appears that the MPAA runs RespectCopyrights.org
] [respectcopyrights.org], a site designed to explain the
] evils of downloading videos. I noticed that the site
] links to an LA Times article called "Hollywood deals with
] piracy , a wary eye on CDs" [respectcopyrights.org].
] However, although the article's copyright (LA Times) is
] noted, no other citation details are provided. You'd
] expect to find the full publication date, page, month and
] date. More importantly, you'd expect a disclaimer such as
] "Reprinted with permission from the LA Times" or
] "Official reprint: LA Times". I work in marketing and, in
] every case where I've reprinted an article, I've had to
] include such details (and pay a hefty reprint fee). The
] article on the MPAA site doesn't even provide a link to
] the LA Times site, so that users could obtain original
] copies
