What it requires
- You may reproduce a fragment of an already-divulged work without the author's authorization for citation, analysis, comment or criticism, to the extent that purpose justifies and in accordance with fair practice, naming the source and the author (art. 32).
- As a mass-media outlet, you may reproduce, distribute and publicly communicate portions of articles on current economic, political or religious affairs disseminated by the mass media, if you are another outlet of the same kind and the right has not been expressly reserved, always clearly indicating the source and the author's name (art. 40).
- As mass media, you may reproduce speeches, addresses and similar works delivered in public, solely to report on current events and citing the author; the author keeps the right to publish a collection of them (art. 41).
- You may reproduce a work seen or heard in connection with reporting on a current event, to the extent the informational purpose justifies; reproduce it in full only in exceptional cases (art. 42).

Right holders, through the courts: they may ask for the unlawful activity to stop and for compensation for moral and material damage (art. 97).
Settledness
- As of
- Open questions
- Does an online news aggregator count as 'cualesquiera otro de la misma clase' (any other outlet of the same kind) as the 'medios de comunicación social' (mass media) in Article 40, and what makes a reservation 'reservado expresamente' (expressly reserved) when an author states it only in a website's terms?
What this law does
Article 32 permits reproducing a fragment of an already-divulged work without the author's authorization when done for citation, analysis, comment, or criticism, to the extent justified by that purpose, in accordance with fair practice, naming the source and the author.
Article 40 goes further for news: portions of articles on current economic, political, or religious affairs disseminated by the mass media may be reproduced, distributed, and publicly communicated by any other outlet of the same kind without the author's authorization, unless that right has been expressly reserved, again with the source and the author's name always clearly indicated.
Article 41 permits the mass media to reproduce speeches, addresses, and similar works delivered in public without the speaker's authorization, when done solely to report on current events and citing the author, while reserving to the author the right to publish a collection of such works. Article 42 permits reproducing a work seen or heard in connection with reporting on a current event, to the extent the informational purpose justifies, with total reproduction reserved to exceptional cases.
