I've stated my objectives of this thread in previous posts .
Much have been discussed about the copyright issues. At least the general public understand that the Copyright Act does not protect the media from being able to use copyrighted images or any other materials freely and that the "dealing" has to be "fair". As mentioned, we shall not put too much of our own understanding of the Copyright Act because our own understandings may not be correct.
Whether or not the "dealing" is "fair" or not, nothing in the Copyright Act exonerates any medias the responsibly to inform and to seek for permission from the person holding the copyright and most importantly, the section does not relief the media from having to comply with the terms and conditions stated by the source/ person holding the copyrights.
I hope more attention can be given to other parts of the discussion as mentioned in my objectives and not just the Copyrights issue.
