I have noticed lately that the local radio station morning shows here that read off their "headlines" and "oddball stories" every morning rip the stories, headlines, and the hilarity directly from Fark.

wtf? I can't believe they do it so blatantly so I have to ask if that's not legit? I mean there is a copyright notice on Fark so I would assume that it is.

The second station at least just rips off the joke/pun etc not the whole headline, but I still can very easily recognize them all.

morning shows generally rip stuff of from anywhere they can get it. Not just Fark.

I'm not familiar with Fark, but it looks like they just aggregate funny news stories from other news sources? How is what the radio station is doing different from what Fark is doing?

its funny how the morning show I listen to always talks about stuff that was on AT days before..like the wedding bride cutting her hair, etc..they even play the audio from the videos

they do manage to come up with some of their own content, but the people calling in for relationship advice..they are as clueless as ATOT posters :p
