writers copyrights

Rcourt64 · 06-08-2008

When it comes to content stories and articles written by writers for the general public to read.
I've noticed many of these stories and articles get CCP by other readers, then taken to other forums and places of public chats throughout the Internet for further discussion.

Is this legal? aren't copyrights being messed with here?
or does the actual content of the story or article determine its copyright value and standards?
example: A news story in comparison to maybe a personal sex novel story.
and if not, do I need authors permission to use his written story?

Without the purpose of any profit for gain from "specific written content", and also offering the author recognition for there content, is it still illegal?
Does the value of the writer or the written content have any copyrights or monetary value when its presumed a public document for display and reading?
