As a follow up to last month's post on Shepherd Fairey's Obama poster photo source, the Today Show announced this morning that AP is now suing Fairey for copyright infringement and demanding compensation and credit.
This was a long time coming, and touches on the huge issue of creative commons and access to information now that anybody can view and share (or rip) images from websites and search engines - Google Images was Fairey's source.
