MUCH like the rest of 'dat ol' media' and Hollywood, Associated Press has been one of the more vocal offenders and battlers against Fair Use doctrine. It was therefore amusing to find them spreading their videos in YouTube, free of charge. Yes, no less than 10976 of them! Here is one which is relevant to us.
As a totally separate side note, earlier today I dumped CNET after years as a feeds subscriber. That site has become utter trash and it's filled with Microsoft and Apple 'advertisements' to the rim (mostly disguised as blog posts). Here is a short list of recommended news sites that are trustworthy:
Free software "absolutism" is not a radical stance, more so if the only "radical" belief the user possesses is that he or she must be in control of his or her software, and by extension his or her computer
Social control media isn't "fun and games"; it's a digital weapon that lets hostile groups or nations infiltrate others, then turn them against themselves
