[edit] Fair use rationale for Doctor Who spoofs

This image, Whorobotchicken.jpg, is being linked here; though the image is copyright © Stoopid Monkey, Sony Pictures Digital and ShadowMachine Films, I believe it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

it is a low-resolution screenshot from the program, and therefore legally considered a "quotation" from the work;
it is being used for identification and critical commentary on the uses and references to Doctor Who in pop culture, specifically in spoofs and comedy;
no more free alternative exists or can exist;
the use of the image in this article will in no way infringe on the owners' copyright, or ability to market Robot Chicken or ancillary works.

[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot of a copyrighted television program or station ID. As such, the copyright for it is most likely owned by the company or corporation that produced it. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots

for identification and critical commentary on the station ID or program and its contents
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. For more information, see Wikipedia:Fair use.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
