New York Post said to prohibit crediting blogs for scoops » Nieman Journalism Lab

The Post prohibits crediting blogs and other competitors for scoops, accordingto the reporter, Alex Ginsberg, who noted the zoning violation two weeks after it was reported by the blogger, who calls herself Miss Heather. “Post policy prevented me from crediting you in print,” Ginsberg wrote in a gracious comment on the blog. “Allow me to do so now. You did a fantastic reporting job. All I had to do was follow your steps (and make a few extra phone calls).”
