[edit] Fair use for Boys of Summer (The Wire episode)

This image, TheWire32.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (Opark 77) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a promotional screenshot from a television series;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the DVD of the show in any way;
3. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the program because it is low resolution;
4. the image is accompanied by a description of the characters role and critical commentary of their importance on the show.
5. the image is significant because it identifies the titular group of starring characters.
