For what it's worth, I do think that the copyright means that you should NOT post the article in its entirety on this or any forum....but we have some lawyers here and I'd defer to them. I think the correct way to reference the article for discussion here is to provide a link to a place where it is legally posted. I believe that the rub is that those who use AP articles in their publications pay a fee to do so. I think you can pull a few quotes from an article, citing your reference. On the other hand, I see people post articles all the time. Mycoupons should probably figure out what's the right thing to do here and let people know.

This is not a legal opinion, merely the opinion of a reasonably intelligent person.
