The new chief executive of MediaNews Group has admitted that it was a
really "a dumb idea" for the nation's second-largest newspaper chain to
sign up with copyright troll Righthaven.
.
John Paton has taken over as the chap in charge of publishing the Denver
Post and 50 other newspapers from Dean Singleton. Singleton thought it was
a neat idea to hire a law firm called Righthaven to hound bloggers through
the courts for mentioning his company's news articles,
.
Paton told Ars Technica that particular arrangement will be over at the
end of the month. He said that the issues about copyright were real. But
the concept that you could hire someone on a success fee to sue people who
may or may not have infringed copyright as a way of protecting yourself
was daft.
.
Paton said that he though it was a dumb idea from the start.
.
The claims are Las Vegas-based Righthaven was founded more than a year ago
to raise cash through copyright infringement lawsuits. It might have
worked if the law had not got in the way.
.
So far Righthaven has not prevailed in court on any of the infringement
lawsuits filed over MediaNews' content.
