ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A recent court ruling that an Internet news clipping service infringed on the use of Associated Press content is a victory not only for the media but for the public, the news cooperative’s CEO said Monday at the AP’s annual meeting.
A federal judge in New York ruled last month that Meltwater News had infringed on AP’s copyright by using unlicensed AP content verbatim to produce a service for paying customers. The judge granted AP’s motion for summary judgment. Meltwater has vowed to file an appeal.
