SocraticGadfly: Everything written, filmed or shot will be eternally copyrighted

September 27, 2008

Everything written, filmed or shot will be eternally copyrighted

Or a de facto equivalent.

A copyright czar? That’s what the Senate approved Friday.

Hell, most “creatives” could stand to start with a copywrite czar.

And, in this case, our beloved Democratic-controlled Congress — enthralled to Hollywood on this issue — actually wanted to go more Nazi than Bush, specifically by requiring, yes requiring, the Department of Justice to sue on behalf of poor, deflowered movie producers and record moguls.

The House passed a similar bill in May; the bills will now have to go to conference.
