CNN Newsource Sales, which oversees the network’s relationship with its 800 affiliates including TV stations and local/regional cable news channels, is running the new website. Earlier this year, CNN’s wire service was launched as subscription service aimed at small newspaper clients. More details here.

Staci adds: The CNN Wire license tries to cover every option: no to use for marketing, yes to changing the format to match publication, etc. The rule for RSS use: “may consist of no more than the headline and first paragraph of the Content that link back to Licensee’s website for display of the full story.” And sites have to post “terms and conditions” that include restrictions on downloads for other than personal use, and prohibit re-use in any other way. But the licensee owns the editorial decision making, responsible for “all editorial decisions”—and there’s no “warranty of accuracy, completeness, currency or reliability.” Don’t you just love the fine print?
