Default What's the proper Netiquette?

If I have a question that can be answered in more than one newsgroup,
should I:

A. post it to each newsgroup separately so it is not filtered by
those who have the ";" as a filter to avoid crossposted posts?

B. do the Cc: thing above, and list all the newsgroups I want the
question to go to.

It seems that no matter what way one goes, you get called a
crossposter.
Is there a "proper" way to do it, or is this just a non matter
followed up only by Net Nannies?
