Old video new to me: A Fair(y) Use Tale

Eric Faden, a professor at Bucknell University, cobbled together an excellent introduction to copyright and fair use using clips from Disney movies.

Did he get permission to use the clips? He most certainly did not.

Professor Faden's use of Disney materials to demonstrate fair use is particularly effective because the Disney Corporation has a reputation for lobbying hard for increasing copyright protection.
