A lawyer's guide to the fair use provision

Bradlee Frazer discusses the two-pronged test for claiming the fair use exemption against charges of copyright infringement. But he also advises that the safest course is usually to get permission first: "Anytime you use any third-party content without permission (including quotes), you run the risk of getting sued. No amount of opining by me or another lawyer can change that fact. No one has to get permission from a judge or lawyer to sue you when you use their 'stuff.'"
