And to be honest to reprint stories on a site for profit violates copyright.

no one is forcing you to do anything.
No one is reprinting stories and violating copyright either, all the stories being posted here were added to my site via RSS Feeds, which were supplied by the site itself for people like me to use on my site. When you are linked from here to my site, the page you see has a link to the rest of the story. If i displayed the entire story here or on my site for that matter without linking to the source then that would be a violation.
I send you to my site because my site is a news site. I (we) took the time to post here, and advertise here, why can't I ask you to make an extra click and check out my site in the process. Perhaps there is other stories on my site that you would like to check out? Shoot me because you have to take 2 seconds more to make 1 more click. Call it spam if you like, either way don't read it if it upsets you.
I guess no ever posted links on here that went to pages listed on digg or sites like it ?
