A Fair Use Fairy Tale

Professor Eric Faden of Bucknell University gives a highly entertaining and masterful demonstration of the copyright principles of fair use and parody in action — by explaining the basics of US copyright law in a clever mashup using protected Disney characters and other intellectual property (Disney is one of the entertainment industry’s biggest advocates of the DMCA, copyright term extension, and other recent changes in US copyright law).
