Jack White Sues Trump Campaign for Copyright Infringement
Rocker Jack White is suing Donald Trump's presidential campaign for copyright infringement.
The lawsuit, filed in federal court in Tennessee, alleges Trump's campaign used White's song “Seven Nation Army” in a campaign video without permission.
The video, which was posted on Trump's social media accounts in June 2020, featured the song prominently. White's attorney, Alex Weingarten, said in a statement that the campaign's use of the song was “willful and intentional.” He said the campaign had been notified of the infringement but had refused to remove the video.
The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and an injunction to prevent the campaign from using the song in the future. It also seeks to have the video removed from all of Trump's social media accounts.
The Trump campaign has not yet commented on the lawsuit.
Here are some of the key points of the lawsuit:
* The Trump campaign used “Seven Nation Army” in a campaign video without White's permission. * White's attorney says the campaign's use of the song was “willful and intentional.” * The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and an injunction to prevent the campaign from using the song in the future. * The Trump campaign has not yet commented on the lawsuit.
