Fair use and all that

From Media Nation: Shepard Fairey, the artist of that ubiquitous Obama/hope poster, is suing another artist for the exact same thing that the Associated Press is suing him for.

I don't have anything to add to this beyond what Media Nation poster Dan Kennedy says in his post; I agree Fairey changed the AP's picture of Obama enough that it was a substantially new work. Way to be hypocritical, Fairey.
