    on Court: It's Fair Use To Use Exec Photos In A Griper's Wanted Poster

    I don't believe that Mr. Masnick (Mike) is over-reaching here.

    At first blush, the court's decision seems to support the notion that Shepard Fairey's poster falls within "fair use."

    Unfortunately,　due to the publicity and exceptionalism surrounding the Fairey case, I don't foresee the Court disposing of the infringement claims as quickly and easily as the Judge did here.
