[edit] Licensing

This image is of a scan of a newspaper page or article, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the newspaper or the individual contributors who worked on the articles or images depicted. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of newspaper pages

to illustrate either the publication of the article or issue in question,
with the publication name either visible on the image itself or written in the image description above,
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, may be copyright infringement. See Copyrights for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Fair use rationale

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use in article D. B. Cooper and Richard McCoy, Jr. is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

The image is only a small portion of the overall product and serves as an easily identifiable part of a larger entity.
The copy of the image is low-resolution and will not produce high-quality copies of the art for illegal duplication. The quality is high enough to clearly present the image and to place the subject represented by the image in a good light.
The use of the image will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to gain commercially from the work.
It illustrates educational articles about the subject represented by the image.
The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of topics in the article.
It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value. A free image could not be created to replace it without itself being a derivative work.
