That's a third-hand account of what is probably already second-hand information. It will probably be twisted around as often as not. My solution is to post the first couple paragraphs (or maybe a bit more if it's long) or an excerpt and then "MORE" or "Name of Article" as links. I think that's fair. It's enough to show what the article is about and it allows those interested to read the full article on the publication website. |
It's only illegal if you don't cite the source and are passing it off as your own content.
