Well Hello! Tricky Grey Area

I'm loving all the media controversy and dispute over the 'wrongly' published picture of the baby Messiah, aka Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. As reported, the US rights to said images were bought by People magazine - for a whopping 4,1 million- which is owned by Time.Inc., as is Hello! magazine, which scored the UK rights to the pictures. Only it seems that Hello! had a little snafu and posted the cover with the picture on their website, from where it was immediately copied and posted all over the internet - I'm sure there are about nine people who haven't seen the pic of the bambino by now.

Naturally, this is where the suits come in, and the fun starts.
Gawker was one of the blogs that posted the image, and one of the few who still have it up, despite of the lawsuit threats. To read their account of "The battle of Shiloh" and the published legal notices from "Sir Jollypants" visit Gawker.com.

Personally I think Hello! should be happy about all the press coverage, which frankly, it hasn't received since the whole Zeta-Jones-Douglas wedding picture saga.

Is it wrong that I find all this copyright law-talk kinda sexy?
