Aw, Minnie Mouse must have touched a sensitive nerve, eh? The audaciousness of criticizing GJ has actually earned it's (sic) own highlighted posting!
Actually, GJ, you're not the only one who's studied journalism and communication laws.
Your interpretation of section 107 Fair Use is rather liberal. While purposes of "criticism" or "comment" certainly fit your blog, because that's just about all you do, in the legal world that's a rather loose application. Fair Use most often applies to the use of intellectual property for educational purposes - formal education. Furthermore, your definition of "truth" is also loose. Truth, as in factual? Or truth, as in your opinion? Hearsay is not a legal argument in U.S.courts.
You are taking the creative work of others without their permission. You are then using it for your own purposes and, quite often, distorting it in a manner of which the author or artist would not approve. As Christians obeying God's commands, copyright laws apply to us also. And, out of love, we should respect the talents God gave to creative minds: meaning, we should not be stealing their work.

GJ - The only nerve it struck was in my funny bone. I post these inane comments because they are so WELS-Church-and-Chicanery. The laity are discovering the tactics of the foul-mouthed, bad-spelling, inarticulate Shrinkers - and how those thugs work the WELS grapevine anonymously. The sanctimony just oozes from their veiled threats and condemnations. An earlier one today said I should follow D. James Kennedy (!?) and worry about how many souls I am taking to heaven.
Minnie Mouse threatened me with lawsuits, without saying exactly why. The comment above could be from Minnie Mouse too - the advantage of unsigned communications.
All the accusations above are stated without a single reason or example given. The apostates have been using the WELS/Little Sect grapevine that way for years. If someone identifies false doctrine face-to-face, they scream, "Unloving! Unbrotherly! Eighth Commandment!" Meanwhile, they mutter anonymously that someone is senile, brain-damaged, or worse. Such brotherly love toward their own fellow pastors. GA must not have united them.
Quoting someone's blog or Tweet is not hearsay. It is digital scholarship. I copy and paste their eructations because Chicaneries quickly erase the evidence, as Pastor Rick did in Corona, California, when I exposed him as a Leonard Sweet-heart.
St. Mark Willow Creek DePere had a life-coach on the staff until I published that fact. Then the title disappeared, but the grant application for a life-coach remained on the Internet. My research team works 24/7.
I think the delightful critique of Willow Creek, written by a non-Lutheran, sparked the inner rage of Church and Chicaneries, prompting their battle cries, which must sound eloquent in the St. Marcus staff lounge.

WELS Church and change really likes "to isolate, intimidate and even shame their critics into silence and cooperation with "hurt feelings" as their license and authority." Their despotic demeanor will continue to drive away the faithful replacing them with more feeling-sensitive members.

GJ - Very sensitive about feelings - their own.
