Some content generators kick back against news aggragators

They are challenging the widespread practice by the likes of Yahoo.com or Huffington Post to excerpt large parts of articles even if they are linked. A New York Times story covers the multiple questions, although it doesn't really cover all the ramifications, including some media companies that are planning to challenge anyone linking to their product. Given the fact that no good media funding model exists, I wouldn't be surprised to see more of this.
