Tiger's
paper tiger: The endangered right of publicity : An article from: Washington
and Lee Law Review (Digital) Book by David J Michnal
Inspired by Tiger Woods's phenomenal victory in the Masters golf tournament, painter Rick
Rush painted 'The Masters of Augusta'. Rush's publisher, Jireh Publishing, Inc., made over
5,000 copies of the painting and sold than to the public. Tiger Woods, via his marketing
company, ETW Corp. filed suit in the US District Court for the Northern District of Ohio
against Jireh, seeking an injunction and damages. Woods based his lawsuit, in part, on a
rapidly evolving area of the law known as the "right of publicity." In its
opinion, the court ruled that the First Amendment protected Rush and his assignee, Jireh,
from Woods's right of publicity claim, allowing Jireh to copy and sell prints of Rush's
painting without license from, or giving proceeds to, ETW. The court's decision was
consistent with the trend toward broader First Amendment protection of artistic expression
and the concomitant erosion in the value of publicity rights.

of publicity versus the First Amendment
Right of publicity is a new intellectual property right that has developed over the past fifty years.under state common law.
Right of publicity grants property rights to everyone to control the commercial use of his or her identity.
Right of Publicity prevents the unauthorized commercial use of an individual's name, likeness, or other recognizable aspects of one's persona.
Right of publicity has grown to include the potential misappropriation of voice, performance style, and former names.
Right of Publicity can also be protected through the law of unfair competition. You can protect the right of publicity by bringing an action for the tort of misappropriation or for a wrongful attempt to "pass off" a product as endorsed by an individual or produced by an individual.
