WHO copyrighted the statue of liberty?

It is not the property of new york or new yorkers, however big their ego was...

I’m expecting to get a letter from some official any day now, reminding me that I am a slave of the state. Pro forma, of course.

See, our governor has time for this kind of frivolity because our state really has no significant problems. It’s a pretty nice situation, actually.

The Statue of Liberty has been around long enough that, even if copyright applied to it, it would have expired long ago.

Just glad Khloe is gone from Dallas, along with her loser husband.

OK, easy for the Kardashians’ to change their image of the statue, instead of using the NY design.

Real image of the Statue of Liberty is better than any ‘design’ anyway.

Statue of Liberty is not copyrighted. What is copyrighted is the Pride of New York logo, which features the Statue of Liberty with a barn and fields.

In this case, it certainly looks to me that it meets the 11 point of difference test, and just happens to be a coincidentally similar image. All that can be done is maybe a nasty letter or three, or if someone really wants to be annoying, they can squander taxpayer dollars filing a lawsuit which they will lose.

I think Cuomo may have met his match. Go after Khloe and have the low info voters “snap” and in a reality mentality way, ANY Kardashian could just bitc# slap that Sandra Lee chick.
