 McCain hits back at Jackson Browne lawsuit curlio  
 2008-11-21 18:22:33 Yahoo!      
Legal Stuff Senator and former Presidental candidate John McCain is hitting back at a lawsuit filed by singer Jackson Browne. Browne accused John McCain and the Ohio Republican Party of using his song "Running on Empty" without his permission for a political ad. McCain says that the usage was covered by the Fair Use policy and that there was no damage.
"Given the political, non-commercial, public interest and transformative nature of the use of a long-ago published song, the minuscule amount used and the lack of any effect on the market for the song (other than perhaps to increase sales of the song), these claims are barred by the fair use doctrine," he says in the new court documents.
I'd say that given the bad image the Republican Party has with many Americans at the moment that Browne could argue that his image was hurt by the association. Look at what the association with George W. Bush did to McCain's Presidental bid!
