1. Cow. 2. Barn door.
Closing 2 after 1 has walked through

From a story in the New York Times:
Taking aim at the way news is spread across the Internet, The Associated Press said on Monday that it will demand that Web sites obtain permission to use the work of The A.P. or its member newspapers, and share revenue with the news organizations, and that it will take legal action those that do not.
From the New York magazine site, a similar story:
The Associated Press and its member newspapers say they will challenge “fair use” laws by taking action against aggregator sites that use their reporting without legal permission. “We can no longer stand by and watch others walk off with our work under misguided legal theories,” Dean Singleton, chairman of the group, said today. "We're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore." Wait: Was it okay for us to use that quote?
