Shock: I'm Ethical!

Great article in the Washington Post today about bloggers ripping off newspaper articles.

It doesn't assail quoting articles, referring to them, or linking to them- just when bloggers essentially re-write the article then make little or no mention of its source. The article talks at length about Gawker.com doing this a lot, but I think Perez Hilton is a much larger offender (pun sort of intended, I guess) of this- both financially and influentially.

I borrow for articles all the time, but I link and cite them in the first line when I do. I'm the best.
