thinking about the worse case scenerio regarding this is just

MJ always gets his $$$. If he thought someone outside of those Halloween masks was making money the lawsuit would happen. Beyoncé and her team tried to get the Super Bowl pics removed from major sites but they are still around.

Jordan should be fine with the meme, he is going to stay relevant with the new kids.

I want that one to hit mainstream so bad so that I can use it in everyday situations.

You know how many times a day a hear someone say something

Or post something on twitter.



still, that would be the smiley that MJ sues the internet for. you can't say Jordan doesn't like no nikkas. thats defamation of character.

Defamation of character

How crazy would it be if he singled out the Coli for specific shutdown in the lawsuit unless we complied. And then he would subpoena us to tell him what exactly meant.

this why legends die young..otherwise they live long enuff to see thru the hype...

Pac had to die so he didnt get old, and try to get his buzz back with a young thug feature

Imagine

Actually no... I rather not imagine that

If they weere to find legal ground, they could treat the picture like pirated music and punish/sue the websites that HOST the image. (imgur, twitter, photobucket, instagram, thecoli, ect.)

If he wanted to remove the image and he finds the right legal strategy, he could remove the image from being shared on the internet.

The photographer who captured what is now famously referred to as the “Crying Jordan” shot had no idea the meme even existed until this week. Stephan Savoia is his name.

According to Sara Germano of the Wall Street Journal, 62-year old Associated Press photographer Savoia and his colleagues won Pulitzer prizes for their work covering the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinski scandal in 1992.

But perhaps his most famous piece of work was unknown to him before going through emails this week after recovering from ankle surgery.

For his part, Savoia isn’t upset about having his work used in this way. Quite the opposite:


“I just did some Google searches after I read your email and have not been able to stop laughing,” he wrote to Germano in an email.



It’s pretty amusing that the man responsible for capturing one of the most recognizable pictures on social media had no idea it existed until now.
