Description

Article

WRBS-FM

Portion used

The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

Low resolution?

The logo is a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

Purpose of use

The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing WRBS-FM, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.

Replaceable?

Because it is a logo there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.

[edit] Licensing

It is asserted that the use of this image in articles pertaining to or in reference to WRBS-FM and its associated properties qualifies as fair use for the following reasons:

  • It is a low-resolution copy of the logo;
  • It does not affect the market for the original work — this is a logo created to promote a radio station, not a commercial work sold to the public for profit;
  • By the nature of the image, no free alternative is possible;
  • The logo is widely identified with WRBS-FM via products, publications, advertisements etc. and so the inclusion of the logo adds significantly to the articles in which it is used
