READ THIS Dallas Morning News (DMN) has demanded we no longer allow their content posted on CZ

[Reality]

We received a legal Cease & Desist order from the law firm of Dallas Morning News (DMN) today requesting we no longer allow DMN content on the site.

It's unfortunate given that we usually send DMN's web site several hundred users in traffic each day, but it is their choice and their content so we will abide with their legal order.

On the bright side, there are a lot of other great Cowboys news sources available which will help all of us keep up with the latest Cowboys news.

Fine with me.
But I agree with you; this may hurt them slightly overall.

**** Dallas Morning News, hope it folds

That paper is dying a slow death anyway, and not just because newspapers in general are.
They no longer have their own North Texas feel. Instead, the overall paper may as well be from the northeast. No longer unique.

Hope they let Sturm know since he posts his stuff here

no link at all is what I'm hearing

I've heard quite a bit about that, too. Let those fools die off then.

Does Sturm work there?

True...forgot about that!

 

[SDCowboy]

That's odd. So we can't even just link to their articles anymore? Why would they not want the free exposure?

 

[Trouty]

Right!? Lol!

Sturm should jump ship.

The legal order stated any content owned by DMN. This order came form their law firm and we have no desire to police their content on the site or mess with grey areas.

I like Sturm. His main job is not at the paper. He writes a few regular pieces for them during football season, but his main gig is radio.

just block their stupid website

Unfortunately, this will include Sturm's content as well. He can take it up with DMN and DMN can have their law firm rescind the order, but until that happens, we will abide with their request.

Oh, I get that. Any content in the DMN is off limits.

You can't even link to their website?

That seems pretty idiotic on their part.

 

[Ranching]

They suck anyway, I stopped reading it a couple of years ago. Won't make much of a difference, if any.

 

[SDCowboy]

So did they give any reasoning why? It just seems odd that a site or paper wouldn't be ok with a link to their website to read the article.
