Patricia Kranz, deputy Sunday business editor at the New York Times, has written a memo posted on the Romenesko site in which she claims that a Wall Street Journal partner in India has been running Times’ content on its web site without attribution.
“In the ‘about HT Media’ section at the bottom of the livemint.com site, it states that its flagship newspaper is the Hindustan Times. It also states that it has launched a national business newspaper, Mint, with an exclusive agreement with Wall Street Journal to publish Journal branded news and information in India. The logo at the top of the site says livemint.com/The Wall Street Journal.”
