It's a Raw Story article, with today's date, that links to a 4 year old Salon article. Like, 0 scruples over at RS, IMO.

No doubt RS would be within first ten folks in line protesting other people and/or other countries stealing intellectual property and/or infringing on copyrights. /s

How does RS get away with it? Is it a simple, de minimis rule it follows of copying only a couple paragraphs and linking original source that shields RS from legal copyright infringement?
Thanks in advance if you can shed light.
