.....but isn't that what free speech is all about? If originality was mandatory there would be no blogs.
I Just Wanna Bitch
July 1st, 2009And it’s my blog, so I can bitch all I want.
Every day I come across blogs that have so much potential to expand on their subject matter, but all they do it copy and paste their entries from other sources. Be it press releases, email updates or other people’s content, these sites just copy, paste and post.
That’s not blogging. It’s laziness and a lack of creativity. Do a little of your own research, clip and paste relevant paragraphs to expand on, or delete your blog. Seriously. Because at this point, even with links to give credit, you are really just stealing other people’s content. You make us all look bad.
Most people start blogs because they have something to say. And yes, there will be times when someone else can say it better than you, and you make the exception to post their full content (I hope with permission). But that shouldn’t be the norm. That shouldn’t be what I see 2 out of 3 days when I go to your site. You’re just wasting my time, and you’re wasting your own, too, because clearly you are not a blogger.
We now return you to regularly scheduled (and predominately original) content.

guilty as charged, when right girl says it.
I've said it all along, you considered a 'cheap shot'.
I was being truthful. When I write a post, I, like many other bloggers, right or left, try to take the time to write something in my own words as an opinion.
It takes very little, to copy and paste. Even less, when someone comments, whether agree, or not, to just respond with even less.
As right girl said, and I have to agree, I've said this to you before Walter.
"you make us look bad".
