Message: Knight-Ridder, who in the past has taken a proactive approach to protect its information under copyright law, now seems to be relinquishing those rights. One of it's newspapers, The Fort Wayne News Sentinel, is in fact supporting a political candidate who has republished several articles from that paper on an Internet Web site. How can Knight-Ridder take any future action, of copyright infringement, against any other party? See www.paulahughes.com
