Google News Norway removes thumbnails

Saturday, 9 December 2006, 21:04

Poynter’s E-media Tidbits is reporting that Google has bowed to the Norwegian media businesses’ association, Mediebedriftenes Landsforening, in the latest copyright row involving Google News.

It appears that Google has only removed thumbnail images originating from media organisations that are members of MBL.

Heh. As a small, independent new media publisher, I was *more than* happy that Google News picked up my site (and that they include my pics as thumbnails...) They're doing a lot better job, imho, than the Newspaper owned Topix.net.
