UnAssociated Press

By Cernig

Overnight, the pushback against Associated Press' bullying of bloggers - through suits against even the smallest excerpt of their content, making a joke out of Fair Use rules - has intensified. There's now a whole new website dedicated to this bullying by AP. UnAssociated Press can be found here and here. It's being run by Richard Kastelein of Atlantic Free Press and has the backing of the likes of Pam Spaulding, Carolyn Kay and Mahablog.

So, you'll be seeing this logo on sidebars all over the internets pretty soon:
