First of all, we at REVIEWER MAGAZINE support, endorse and fully defend the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, which protects freedom of speech and the free press, and states:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press…”

Furthermore …

Some of the stories, videos and images on this site contain copyrighted material whose use has not been specifically authorized by the copyright owner. REVIEWER MAGAZINE is making this material available in an effort to advance the understanding and appreciation of the arts, music, current events, human rights, economic and political democracy, and issues of social justice, as well as for the purposes of satire and entertainment. We at REVIEWER MAGAZINE believe this constitutes a “fair use” of the copyrighted material as provided for in Section 107 of the US Copyright Law. If you wish to use such copyrighted material for purposes of your own that go beyond “fair use,” such as financial gain derived from its sale or in advertising images, you must obtain permission from the copyright owner.

“Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include – (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors.”
