I was an award winning radio reporter and associated press took our reports all the time.. they never asked permission or paid me or gave credit. I know that a*s Press never had a reporter their for most of the events. The AP needs to be regulated they are defacto monopoly. Their big media control isnt good for us reporters or america... call your senators and congressmen demanding that the AP monopoly be investigated by the FTC.

I know of one blogger is owed at least $180k under the AP's own guidelines. Using their own logic, they will steal comments from blogs for their own news stories that you have to pay them to reprint beyond 4 words!
