Is there a difference between
1) using one fact from a newspaper article to use in another database, and
2) using one fact from a database to use in another database?

Can you clarify exactly what that difference is why one is legal while
the other is not (if that is indeed what you're implying)?

Can you clarify what you mean, please? What is legal, what is illegal, and why?
