Mail Online chief in clash with Australian reporter over copyright; Guardian, 6/19/14

Amanda Meade, Guardian; Mail Online chief in clash with Australian reporter over copyright:
"The spat between News Corp and Mail Online over copyright in Australia has spilled over to the Cannes Lions advertising festival, with a late night altercation between website publisher Martin Clarke and a reporter from a Murdoch title...
The background to this French farce is legal action by News Corp against the newly launched rival website Daily Mail Australia, which Rupert Murdoch’s Australian has accused of theft, breach of copyright, plagiarism and “parasitical practices”.
Mail Online responded on Monday by accusing News Corp of lifting its stories on at least 10 occasions."
