“Fair Use” in US copyright laws allows you to copy brief excerpts of copyrighted material for purposes such as criticism, news reporting, teaching, or research, without the need for permission from the copyright holder. But copying and pasting large sections of an article or blog post is called “scraping” content, and in most cases, is violating copyright laws.

The rules are listed here. But what exactly do they mean? Can I cut and paste any photo I see as long as I acknowledge the photographer or is sharing only approved for photos under Creative Commons license? I'd appreciate any feedback.

Beyond that, you may be infringing on copyright or trademark protections. Developing messaging that works is a sweaty, laborious process. So it's all the more frustrating when it turns out your message is exactly the same as used by an organization your target audiences are likely to know. If that's the situation, you're late to the party, and there's no way that your org's messaging will have the desired impact. When it's heard, your base is likely to think of the other org.
