   [While the "Subject:" may not be pure comp.text.desktop, the end
   result will be]  

   Does anyone have any pointers to a publication  (book preferred)
   that deals with how to report "news" without getting sued for
   copyright infringement?

   Things it should cover (hopefully):

       *  The differences (if any) between newspaper, magazine, book,
          TV, and radio "articles".  Which are "public information", etc.
       *  When, and how, to acknowledge sources.  
       *  Etc.
