No just reprinted in a local newspaper and fully attributed. This is no different to physical print newspapers reprinting articles from foreign newspapers. Individual newspapers don't have access to every piece of news. They also reprint material to place their own advertising. Though you might have thought Sitepoint being a Melbourne based company, "The Age" would have printed the story and not the other way around. Reading through the entire article the majority of the content is US based companies using this idea to make money.

Is "NYT" simply reflecting the "make money" signal New York emits? It might also explain why "The Age" hasn't bothered and why Melbourne is the "Artichoke-end" of the Startup world.
