    I have found many popular websites use ap news. They maintain this structure:

    AP> Here is the article or news

    copyright 2007 AP

    Can i also do this to my website or i need permission before doing this

    Legally... you need more than their permission... you need to pay their hefty fees for the right to use their service. I think newspapers pay something like a thousand dollars each month to use their service.

    apdigitalnews.com

    I don't think they will say much if you only use like 1 or 2 items... And you might be able to use a feed from another source without running into any problems.

    You have to buy a license to use their news. Their only other major competitor is Reuters, so you can try them too. Quite expensive if you don't have a good source of income when you start.
