Fair use Rationale for Ehime Maru
Though the picture is subject to copyright I feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- It in no way infringes or assists in the illegal reproduction or distribution of the content of the event, goods or services being advertised;
- It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the event, goods or services in any way;
- The image is of small size and inferior quality/resolution, so that attempts to make illegal print copies of the poster artwork would be useless;
- The image is being used strictly for informational and/or educational purposes;
- It furthers the goals of providing verifiable information concerning the subject matter, in that it visibly demonstrates content which is referenced explicitly or implicitly within the text of the article itself.
- No free images have been found of the subject
