Obey Plagiarism: Shepard Fairey
February 18th, 2009

Up until about fifteen minutes ago, I had a real solid respect for Shepard Fairey and his creations from Obey. Despite the recent run-ins with the associated press over his somewhat plagiarized Obama image, I still remained a fan of his work. Stealing or borrowing from the AP didn’t bother me much — afterall, who was he really harming when the photographer of the doctored image even wanted a signed copy!
A’las, that all ended when I completed reading ‘Obey Plagiarism Shepard Fairey‘. I suspect you’ll find the same.
Depressing really, thieves.
Wow, I had no idea. Thanks for the link.
