Glad to be a source of news for Times of Malta, even if unacknowledged

When I upload information and news from Times of Malta, I make a point of acknowledging it and providing links to the original where possible (that is, if it is not in the print edition only).
But apparently, there is no return consideration. The story Times of Malta is carrying about a soldier being burned during a training exercise was taken from this site two hours after I uploaded it here. They are even using the Youtube videos I made from raw footage sent to me from the scene.
I don’t mind use of the stuff that I upload here. That’s the point – getting it out to a wide audience. But please, have the decency to acknowledge it. These things should be reciprocal, besides also being the civilised thing to do.
