How weird is that? A global news agency syndicating content from a small news site out of nowhere.


How is it that weird? It makes perfect sense for global news distributors to source content from small providers.

Not saying they did a good job of it here... but the principle is sound.


The role of news agencies like Reuters is to produce quality news on matters that smaller papers might not have the resources to report themselves... like TheWrap just exemplified.


No Reuters and AP are in the business of providing cheap content to fill up gaps in publications.


Sarcasm? That's the very definition of the Associated Press.
