But copyright law does state that the holder of said copyright is the only one who may decide if and how material may or may not be reproduced by 3rd parties.
If SueW thinks that all information should stay on her website, and is not to be copied anywhere else without explicit permission to do so (just guessing here), that's her right. And acknowledging the source does not mean that you can do anything you want with copyrighted material. That's like downloading an mp3, and saying: "It came from that album".
Disclaimer: nothing personal implied anywhere. Just the facts about copyright law.
