Different law. :o) Model/Talent releases typically deal with privacy and/or misappropriation laws (mostly the photographer wanting to secure that he won't be sued for breach). Your CNN aggrement is a copyright issue. If you are within Fair Use you can use the material (as always) - if you're not, you're out of luck. Fair Use has been discussed extensively on this list in the past. My recommendation is still to pick up a college text book on copyright and privacy laws. Pember, "Mass Media Law" is the one I've read. It covers almost everything. You can probably pick up an old edition cheap-ish. - Andreas -- <URL: http://www.solitude.dk/ > Commentary on media, communication, culture and technology. ------------------------ Yahoo!
