In the last few news reports , the "copyright free" phrase is repeating. This is worrying. I think we should try to correct the reporters or try to give an explanation about the copyright of wiki project content. All the content in wiki projects are not "copyright free", but uses a permissive copyright or copyleft as its is popularly known.
I think Wiki Activists also need this sensitizations to communicate licensing well to reporters & public.
