Via International Herald Tribune: GateHouse Media sues NY Times Co. over copyright:
"Dan Kennedy, an assistant journalism professor at Northeastern University who also runs the Media Nation blog that is tracking the lawsuit, said the case could have national implications because it could settle questions on how much content one news organization can use from another.
"What the Globe is doing is what everybody says newspapers should be doing," said Kennedy, referring to aggregating content like Google News.
Kennedy, however, said the Boston.com model is different since it puts up advertising, unlike Google News.
GateHouse, he said, can make an argument that Boston.com is profiting from GateHouse journalism.
"It will be interesting to see the outcome," Kennedy said. "This is one of the most important stories about the newspaper business right now."
