The Supreme Court ruling was important but is just part of the story, and just one part of this case.  

June topic: Warhol v Goldsmith and a look at Fair Use

• Review the Supreme Court verdict.
• After Lynn Goldsmith had reached out to the Warhol Foundation regarding possible the licensing of her photo, they sued her first. How is that possible?
• How will this verdict affect that lawsuit?
• How might it affect other cases?
• Does this case affect other cases when famous artists appropriate a photographer's work?
• How does the Registration of Copyright affect the outcome when you have been infringed?
