Did I paraphrase far enough to avoid a lawsuit ? :)

The entertainment enforcers of DRM are after money;
I suspect the MSM news spinners, and their masters,
want control.

Q: If a low quality citizen journalist is standing
next to a paid professional, and they document
the same event, can the PP sue the CJ for theft ?

No ? How about if the CJ follows the PP to the scene ?

Digression on enabling tchnology:
Guys, Gals, find out the facts on PCs and the Net;
The truth is stranger than the fiction, and more
useful in predicting the future of Tech.

Lastly, Everything Old is New again, per Heinlein:

“In the course of a long life, there have been ten
occasions when I was on the scene of a story later
reported by XXXXXXX magazine, and _not_once_ did
what they wrote match what I saw.”
