After the copyright smackdown

Don't despair at the Supreme Court's gift to Disney, says Siva Vaidhyanathan. The fight has really only just begun.

Reason has Disney's cartoon rodent speaking out on the Eldred decision: One reason Disney put its weight behind the 1998 [copyright extension] was to keep Mickey and the gang on the plantation; Eldred's backers subsequently adopted Free the Mouse as an unofficial slogan. Mickey's own reaction to the decision was less enthusiastic.
