This wouldn't necessarily bother me as the newspaper / website owner - once I have got my money / hits then it is up to the buyer to beware.
If I was the buyer it would concern me very much, thats why I am contributing to this thread. But not all buyers seem to think that way. Some people like flyers and might regard this as a service!

Just in case there is any doubt I agree 100% with that statement.
I just believe that a few solid examples where the case is clear is better than dozens of not so clear cut ones.
