Ted the Poster 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 As someone who isn't partial to the left or right, that was just hilarious. The Dean scream reminded me of Mel Gibson on South Park. Bush: "Nucular..." Kerry: "Heh heh heh. You said 'nucular'. It's 'nuclear' dummy; the S is silent." Astro: What channel, out of curiousity? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted August 5, 2004 Found this update in my EFF e-mail newsletter: * JibJab Files Suit to Defend Fair Use Rights In early July, the two brothers behind a little animation shop called JibJab released a short flash piece that features cartoon versions of President Bush and Senator Kerry slinging insults at each other to the tune of Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land." The short, called "This Land," has been fantastically popular - but at least one music publishing company didn't get the joke. The copyright holder, Ludlow, Inc., has threatened JibJab and its upstream website hosting providers with copyright litigation. "This Land" should qualify as a fair use under copyright law. JibJab used only a few lines of Guthrie's lyrics. The short is also a parody, commenting not only on the 2004 elections, but also on Woody Guthrie's famous song. Moreover, Woody Guthrie didn't compose the melody - it looks like he borrowed it from the legendary country artists, The Carter Family. In response to Ludlow's threats, JibJab asked EFF for help to protect its fair use and free speech rights. Last week, we filed a lawsuit on JibJab's behalf, asking a federal court in San Francisco to declare that the humorous "This Land" is perfectly legal. For more on this ongoing fight, check out the links below and stay tuned to EFF's Deep Links weblog. Deep Links post: <http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/archives/001782.php> Wired article: "JibJab Asks for Court's Help": <http://www.wired.com/news/culture/0,1284,64428,00.html> National Public Radio interview with Arlo Guthrie, folk singer and son of Woody Guthrie: <http://www.npr.org/features/feature.php?wfId=3810407> I'm really getting sick of overzealous copyright lawyers/suits. This case is particularly absurd, seeing as how folk music is built off a tradition of variation on an "authorless" track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
