saw your post on the Reuters video and am hoping you could give me some more detail on the “disadvantage” statement. Can you elaborate on “unavailable for publishing through most blogging services”? I work for the company so may be able to have that changed :)

Thanks Patty,
I’ll have to look to see if the changes have been made. Disadvantages:
1. Delay and Verification when choosing to broadcast 3rd Party News
2. Technically Challenging to Publish
3. Required Programming Changes after Neccesary Publishing Permissions have been granted
4. Compatibility issues with 3rd party applications (such as Word Press)
