EFF: Music Publisher Settles Copyright Skirmish Over Guthrie Classic
Music publisher Ludlow Music, Inc., has officially backed down on its threats against web animation studio JibJab Media Inc. over the widely circulated “This Land” animated parody lampooning President Bush and Senator Kerry. JibJab had responded to Ludlow’s threats by engaging the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) to file suit on its behalf in San Francisco on July 29, 2004, seeking judicial confirmation that JibJab’s work was a protected “fair use” and did not infringe Ludlow’s copyrights.
