From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A screenshot of Ashlee Simpson (right) walking away from the dress rehearsal of her October 2004 appearance on Saturday Night Live due to vocal difficulties, in a video taken by reporters for 60 Minutes. Image copyright for the video is owned by CBS News.

[edit] Rationale of fair use for Ashlee Simpson

The image Image:Cryingafterlipsync.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (Extraordinary Machine 18:36, 2 September 2005 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:

  1. The screenshot is of lower resolution than the original video (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
  2. No free or public domain images have been located for this person.
  3. The screenshot does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the video in any way.
  4. The screenshot is related to, and is intended to represent, the person's Saturday Night Live incident. Its inclusion in the article is important because it represents a significant point in the person's career that is overviewed in the article. Additionally, the image helps to illustrate the circumstances surrounding the incident.
  5. The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original video in any way.

This picture was not taken during rehearsal. This is a LIVE shot of Simpson seconds after walking offstage during the live SNL performance. This picture was taken at nearly the same time NBC quickly cut to commercial.
