3:46 PM EDT 		Web Upd8 submits a lot of stories to brand x, and most of them are copied from other sites. I have contacted several of the original authors, and so far none of them have given permission for their material to be copied. A tiny attribution at the end does not make it legit. I suggest going to the sources and posting those, rather than using plagiarized articles.
