Twitter Took Down Trump's Nickelback Post Attacking Joe Biden
BI ^ | 10/03

Posted on 10/03/2019 4:35:05 AM PDT by Helicondelta

Twitter took down a meme tweeted by President Donald Trump, in which the music video for Nickelback's hit 2005 song "Photograph" was edited to attack former Vice President Joe Biden.

Trump tweeted the clip Wednesday. At the moment where singer Chad Kroeger holds up a photo frame, the image was edited to show Biden, his son Hunter Biden, and a Ukrainian gas company board member, seeming to cast doubt on assertions by Biden that he never spoke to Hunter about his business overseas.

Hey, the only place where parody is allowed and encouraged is in a Congressional committee.

In this case, Twitter responded to a copyright complaint.

A 15 second clip, with parody, is the very definition of "fair use".

You'll remember that the original fair use case involved Free Republic.

I'd never heard of him, them, or whatever a Nickelback is until this thread.

Must be a kid thing.

18 years ago IS a kid thing. It's all a matter of perspective.

Almost 3 million views on instagram.

That’s equal to total day viewers of Sean Hannity!! And way more than Don Lemon who has about 300k.

You are the one making that massive leap.

You’re wrong, it’s an excellent legal argument. The original court decision was ridiculous, but it IS legal precedent that Trump can well use, if he wants.

The question to Biden was stupid. The real question should have been: Have you spoken to any Ukrainian, Russian or Chinese politicians or businessmen about your son’s overseas business dealings?

I guess to you.
If college students liked them 18 years ago, they’re 36-44 y/o now. Maybe you consider that a kid thing...
