Fair Use Rationale

Promotional image for the television film "Wisegal".

The source of this image is http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/movies/wisegal.

This image is subject to copyright by Lifetime Television, but it is covered by U.S. fair use laws for inclusion in the article "Wisegal" because:

1. It is a promotional image, released by Lifetime Television for promotional purposes.
2. It identifies the subject of the article about the television film.
3. It is not replaceable with free content, as any image of the television series would be similarly owned by the copyright holder.
4. It is a low resolution copy of the image.
5. It does not interfere with the copyright owner's economic interests.
6. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights.
7. It is being used for educational and informational purposes only.

This image is of a film poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of film posters to provide critical commentary on the film in question or of the film poster itself, not solely for illustration where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
