These guys are THIEVES, please do not support them in any way!
especially do not give them any links.

They are blatantly copying other websites and then trying to claim a
copyright on the stolen material for themselves. If you google phrases
from almost any article on their site you will see that they are
plagiarizing sites all over the Internet!

They show many Vendor Banners on their pages as well. Every single
Vendor I have contacted said they did not give these guys permission
to use any of their content or to any type of link exchange.

As a webmaster who spends countless hours researching and writing
original content I strongly object to unscrupulous thieves like this.

I especially like the 1st item in Tea News on their Home page:
"Tea Leoni and Jim Carrey have great chemistry

http://www.eitb24.com

While filming the movie fellow co-workers including the director admitted it
was close to impossible to hold back laughter from Carrey's sense of humour.

The interesting thing is that they are now at least acknowledging the
source. That is progress and shows they are listening.

I still think the copyright owners will take issue with it anyway,
they dont care that a small link was included, they simply dont want
their material showing up on other websites.

Owners of Tea History, you appear to be listening, email me and I
will gladly help you to understand what is considered acceptable and
what is not.
