RightHaven LLC is the company...

...that has sued Clayton Cramer and others for copyright infringement because they posted excerpts of material published in their papers. They did so without any request the material be taken down. The CEO considers surviving off of judgements a viable business plan. The suits are on the behalf of Stephens Media LLC the owner of the Las Vegas Review-Journal and a multitude of other papers. John Richardson has posted a list of Stephens Media's holdings with a suggestion bloggers avoid linking to their papers. That's an excellent idea. I guess we'll see how viable that business model really is?
