You gotta admire Republicans. They’re constantly looking for the bottom of the barrel, and they’re determined to find it.

For editorial use, it’s fair use, not a copyright violation. Editorial usage doesn’t necessitate paying royalties.

Republicans keep offending anyone and everyone under the sun. It is as if they trip over each other to be the first in line to offend others. And yet they tell us that they are the Party of the Big Tent.

I find that surprising, but don’t have any evidence.
We’ve had a string of real winners here in S.D.

Has anyone ever told DeMaio he needs to seriously grow up? I’m guessing no. This is not the kind of behavior we look for in our elected representatives. At least I don’t.

So is this really the crap S,D, wants representing them? Before he is even elected he is embroiled it 2 scandals in what 10 days?
Both indicate this guy has the mentality of a drunken teenager trying to get elected captain of the wrestling team.

Why-o, why-o, why-o would anyone vote for DeMaio???
Gay masher, woman basher… hold on, I may need to run down to the store for more popcorn, this looks to be a entertaining show.
I think we now know why the GOP makes up less than 30% of the political demographic in California. All of the decent Republicans left the CA GOP and this is all they’ve got left.
It isn’t a picture of the Peters staffer, Kate Lyon. Unfortunately, the interweb being what it is (a series of tubes), every time someone googles Kate Lyon, this picture will pop up. W

No, it’s not a copyright violation. It falls quite squarely within the scope of “fair use” as part of a news story. You can debate whether publishing the photo was in good taste, but it is not copyright infringement. Not even close.
No. It isn’t a violation of the right to publicity, either. It’s a news report discussing the use of the photo. Publishing the photo as part of the report is not a violation of the right of publicity, nor is it a copyright infringement.
Accompanying photo of DeMaio with a wide stance in the men’s room of an airport?
Burritos as big as your head.
Nope, no war on women here…none under here…maybe under here…
That is not “more to the point.” It is a different point.
A right of publicity claim typically does not apply to “newsworthy” uses of a persons name or likeness and is instead usually focused on use of someone’s name or likeness for marketing purposes.
