Kolpacks book: Horns Up

[1993bison]

Started to read it. I don't like how he named names of donors and disclosed sales tactics even though it's probably obvious how the solicitation works.

Speaking as an author, he has no financial obligation to NDSU as they do not own Jeff's intellectual property that he gained through reporting on them for so many years. The royalties are the reward for busting your ass and writing the book. (In this case, it appears to me Jeff owns the book as he self-published so little different than me.) As much as they are hated, the more legit claim would be by the Forum as much of his material he obtained was done on their dime and have some claim to the intellectual property used. Not sure he had to give them a cut or not, but it would be hard to dispute if he did have to pay them a little since they clearly own most of his previously written work.

Now, should Jeff give a donation in good will? That is a completely different discussion, but I don't think he should feel obligated to, or be required to donate a percentage, etc.
