A company has sued Republican U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle, claiming she reprinted two Las Vegas Review-Journal articles on her campaign website without permission.

Las Vegas-based Righthaven is seeking unspecified damages in its complaint filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas.

The suit alleges Angle neither sought nor received permission to display a Review-Journal article and editorial on her website this summer.

An Angle spokesman says he would not comment until the campaign's lawyers have reviewed the suit.

Righthaven tracks Internet traffic for copyright infringements of Review-Journal stories. It then buys the copyright for a story from the newspaper's owner, Stephens Media LLC, and sues the alleged infringer.

Talk about a political hit job if i've ever seen one! This company has donated quite a bit of money to Harry Reid over the years and their whole purpose is really a scam to sue people.


respectfully, shouldnt the thread be called 'RIGHTHAVEN sure plays dirty" ??


Not when Harry Reid gives the orders. Just like when he told his former Chief of Staff and current Attorney General of Nevada Catherine Cortez Masto to file charges against Lt. Governor Krolicki a week after he announced he was planning on running against him.

By the way, charges were dropped because there was no case.



harry reid is ceo of Righthaven?

You can legally quote any published material you wish, as long as you cite the source you got it from.

Copyright infringement happens when you claim something as your own when it isn't.



lol, you beat me to the punch

did she cite the work or post it as her own,,,,I mean we even get hassled in this little forum when we copy and paste without citing,,,


No, she always quotes the source. Read the other posts i've made about the company. Hell I can bring up the list if you really want of all the people they sued, all of them but 3 or 4 quoted the source.

Fortunately, a fair use exemption allows you to legally copy small amounts of someone else's work. Just make sure to give the author credit so you won't be guilty of plagiarism!

if she only copied a small amount and gave credit, Im sure she has nothing to worry about
