I didn't say it wasn't transformative, nor did I say anything Mr. Fairey didn't concede himself. Winning or losing the case with the AP will only boost his career. I'm all for appropriation. What I did do was point out the "confession" and of course pointed out one of the artist's more recent installations. I could have simply had my Chianti and left. ¡Ola!

If that poster ain't "transformative" of Garcia's photo, nothing is. A collage artist as accomplished as yourself, Mistah Rose, should not concede so much to the "other side" in your writings.
