Fair use in Ellen (TV series)

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. It illustrates an educational article about the entity that the DVD cover represents, that being a TV series.
2. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic. Except for images of movie posters, DVD/VHS and other images used for retailing the movie are the primary means of identification of the film.
3. It is a low resolution image, and thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods.
4. The logo is not used in such a way that a reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the logo.
5. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value, since the article in question is itself about a copyrighted work.

Please refer to the licensing template, which gives a clear indication of the use of DVD cover images for representation of films.
