Jackson Browne Files Grand Ol' Suit Against McCain
Jackson Browne is always up for a good protest.
The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has refused to take it easy, suing GOP presidential candidate John McCain and the Republican National Committee for victimization his biggest hit, "Running on Empty," in an Obama-slamming hunting expedition ad without his permission.
Browne, a veritable fixture on the Democratic front, says that he's "incensed" by McCain's manipulation of the song, which falsely creates a perception that he endorses the Arizona senator's campaign, according to the copyright-infringement lawsuit filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles.
He is seeking unspecified damages in addition to a permanent injunction blackball further use of goods and services of "Running on Empty" or whatever other Browne song.
"We ar confident that Jackson Browne will obtain in this lawsuit," the musician's lawyer, Lawrence Iser, said in a statement today. "Not only give birth Senator McCain and his agents plainly infringed Mr. Browne's right of first publication in 'Running on Empty,' but the Federal Courts have long held that the unauthorised use of a far-famed singer's voice in a commercial constitutes a false endorsement and a violation of the singer's right of publicity.
"In light of Jackson Browne's lifelong dedication to Democratic ideals and political candidates, the misapplication of Jackson Browne's endorsement is alone reprehensible, and I have no doubt that a jury will agree."
McCain's hoi polloi say, however, that the ire would be better directed (if at all) to the Ohio Republican Party, which produced the commercial in question.
We know, Browne's bivouac said.
"We have sued the Ohio Republican Party as well, and we have been informed and believe that McCain and his campaign were well aware of the ad," Iser told the Los Angeles Times' Top of the Ticket web log. "We are also informed and believe that the ad was broadcast on television in Ohio and Pennsylvania...The fact that it appears on the Internet means it also reaches an audience well beyond those states."
And this isn't even the first pop-culture issue that McCain has had this week, according to the Huffington Post. Mike Myers reportedly requested that the campaign charter down a Web ad that put-upon the "We're not worthy" clip from Wayne's World in dissing Obama's celebrity prowess.
Harkening bet on to the days when Bruce Springsteen wanted Ronald Reagan to quit exploitation "Born in the U.S.A." to tout his candidacy, Indiana-born rocker John Mellencamp, who says in Rolling Stone's a la mode issue that it bathroom be pretty strange organism the only left-winger for miles on his Indiana homestead, objected earlier this year to the McCain campaign playing "Our Country" and "Pink House" at events.
"Are you sure you want to use his music to promote Senator McCain's efforts?" read a letter sent by his spokesman to the military campaign. "Logic says that the facts might prove to be an embarrassment, were they to be circulated widely."
