Eminem’s Eight Mile Style sues Facebook
By Tribute on May 22, 2013 | 4 Comments
Eminem’s song publisher, Eight Mile Style, is suing Facebook and ad agency Wieden + Kennedy for copyright infringement. Eight Mile Style claims the ad agency’s advertisement for Facebook Home used a portion of Eminem’s song “Under the Influence.” In the federal lawsuit the publisher says, “W+K’s and/or Facebook’s willful encouraging, inducing, facilitating and enabling of the unauthorized use and exploitation of the Eminem/D12 Composition and any derivative thereof constitutes copyright infringement.” The lawsuit also states: “Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been a longtime fan of Eminem. This is evidenced by one of the first websites Zuckerberg reportedly created in 1999, on which Zuckerberg refers to himself as ‘Slim Shady,’ which is Eminem’s famously known alter-ego.” After the ad was first released online, the social networking site later edited the background music and re-released the broadcast. The lawyers representing Eight Mile Style believe that the modification was an admission that Facebook knew it broke a copyright law. Facebook spokespeople have so far declined to comment. ~Sarah Dos Santos
