Apologizing to the Associated Press

Earlier this week, I wrote that the Associated Press had "jumped the copyright shark" in  demanding a licensing fee from anyone emailing an article to more than five people or posting excerpts of any size.

I was wrong.

When this new program comes out - in which the Associated Press turns all of the images, text, and other content into a giant trojan horse type program, then they will have officially - and entirely - "jumped the shark."
