Just as you could publish a summary of the design of
some gadget written about in Popular Science, you
could publish a summary Brinker's newsletter here.

Copyright covers the expression of the idea, not
the idea itself. Brinker's radio broadcasts are
copyrighted, but we freely discuss their idea
and content here everyday.

I do agree with your point, however, that there
is a legitimate tendency to hold the contents of
his newsletter in secret, given its relatively
high cost and low circulation.
