If you’re a large online news outlet doing this repeatedly: Probably sue you.

They don’t care about you but yes they would probably go after a newspaper and sue them for copyright infringement.

That suit would be practically impossible, as it’s clearly Fair Use.

Fair use is a defense you have to make in court. And court is expensive.

Fair use only covers critique, parody and education, and only with a whole bunch of extra nuance (e.g. you can’t just put a clip of yourself saying you didn’t like a movie at the end of the movie and get away with hosting it on your site by claiming it was critique, and you can’t download a PDF of a textbook and get away with it by claiming it was for education). Fair use lets you do a lot less than people think.

I hate Twitter but I despise articles that just post 3 tweets and provides a barebones AI recap of the conversation.

Can you imagine a precedent it would set. Twitter would never win.
