Hi Jim,

When you mentioned about getting permission from the author first before posting it. Say for example I take something from news channels like CNN, BBC etc. do I need to somehow contact CNN, BBC before publishing it on my blog, even if I summarize it or put them in bullet points and provide a link on my blog to source of the article.

Thank you!

Jim, here you mentioned about the article.

What if I would like to embed YouTube video onto my Wordpress site ? How do I credit the author and make it legal ?

Also, if I copy a photograph from a website without any article attached, how do I credit the author and make it legal ?

Thank you.
