UCLA Law School professor Doug Lichtman's IP Colloquium has posted a very interesting new podcast, this one addressing the copyright issues raised by Shepard Fairey's use of an Associated Press (or maybe Manny Garcia) photo in his iconic "Obama Hope" poster. The podcast features Lichtman interviewing Stanford Law School professor Mark Lemley (Fairey's attorney), Kirkland & Ellis partner Dale Cendali (the AP's attorney), and Ken Richieri, Senior Vice President and General Counsel at the New York Times.
CLE credit is available in CA, IL, NY, TN, and WA, as well as other states that reciprocate with those five.

Comments here are moderated. I appreciate substantive comments, whether or not they agree with what I've written. Stay on topic, and be civil. Comments that contain name-calling, personal attacks, or the like will be rejected. If you want to rant about how evil the RIAA and MPAA are, and how entertainment companies' employees and attorneys are bad people, there are plenty of other places for you to go.

I am pleased you have given publicity to the excellent work Doug is doing with his IP Colloquium. One of his earlier presentations also dealt with copyright issues and is well worth the time to listen to it in its entirety.
