But that's really not the same thing. A newspaper is a business. It makes money. They published your daughter's photos in their publication (which is sold) without attributing credit. That's wrong. Taking one photo that's posted on Twitter and reposting it on your own twitter account is not the same thing. Maybe if he used it on his own personal website, but not Twitter or Facebook or Instagram. That's the whole POINT of those websites.
I know what the "BC" stands for, but it was the "C" in front of the "BC" that has me confused by JC's "CBC" reference.
I dunno, his twitter account is part of his brand, and that pic with Kobe was part of his professional narrative. Anything he does is biz related, whether he means to or not, and attribution is part of the courtesy. Nobody gives a shit if I don't attribute because I have like 10 followers. Dame doesn't have that luxury.
Well then we're going to drive celebrities away from twitter/facebook/instragram because they're not going to want to open themselves up to lawsuits whenever they post something. And I would just like to say that I broke the story about Oden playing pickup basketball at 24 Hour Fitness and nobody ever credited me (including the Oregonian).
We're all pretty smart and creative, I bet we can come up with a reason for Blake Griffin to punch Canzano.
Look, I'm not here to say what social media is designed to do; I'm just saying what professional courtesy looks like. Did they use your pictures?
I was kind of sending a little shout out to Mediocre Man you know - deal coming soon Combining plagiarizing and getting sued for it and MM's catch phrase At the time I laughed and laughed about it Then I posted it and maybe it just wasn't that funny in the first place Wait, what am I thinking? Obviously that can't be possible... clearly the problem is everyone else on the board.
