A reader called me this morning to tell me he had found a post on Reuters that I had written.
He called to tell me that Reuters was stealing my material.
Actually, the truth is, I gave them permission to borrow anything they like and put it up on their site as they see fit. They pick and choose. They don't like everything. Sometimes different Editors will like the same article so it shows up more than once.
Here's a quick list of the articles I currently have on their site:
| Article: | Section: |
| Citigroup "Global Community Day" | Business and Finance |
| "They Raised The Conforming Limit!" | Politics |
| Deal or No Deal? Part One | Business and Finance |
| "They Raised The Conforming Limit!" | Business and Finance |
| You Can't Fix LTV | US News |
| But I made my payments... | Business and Finance |
| Will Agents Replace Mortgage Brokers? | Business and Finance |
| What is a Forbearance? | Business and Finance |
| The Emergency Fed Rate Cut | Business and Finance |
| California Lien - ing | Business and Finance |
| Has Stockton Run Out? | US News |
| Is Ocwen making a strategy move? | Business and Finance |
| The Economic Stimulus Act is now a LAW | US News |
| Has Stockton Run Out? | Politics |
| Which FICO? | Business and Finance |
So there you have it. I sincerely appreciate anyone who goes out of their way to look out for me. Writing quality content that ultimately shows up on Reuters is an honor.
If you've been a reader here for any length of time you'll probably already read these posts. If you haven't - head on over to Reuters.
PS: If you want to know how to get your posts on Reuters too - drop me an email.
Thank you!
Well, it was nice of that reader to notify you... even if you were aware of it. Hopefully when Reuters does post your material, they are giving you proper credit for it.
Very nice work! You definitely deserve for them to be on there!
Congratulations!!! It's always nice to have readers looking out for you. It's nice to see them reading and keeping up on the news and you too!!
Christopher - They are.
Courtney - You are too kind! Thanks!
June - It sure is. and unexpected I might add!
That many articles is very impressive, but I am not surprised. Actually, I would be impressed if you said that you had one. Nice to see your work appreciated.
I just checked and yesterday on Reuters for all the above posts there were more than 5,500 views. I'm sure that's not actual readers, but that is a lot of eyeballs!
Unfortunately - you cannot comment there - just read.
Wow. That's an honor. Do they give you credit for being the original writer?
