We have a parody site in which we discuss, entirely in our
words, some information listed elsewhere on a public
message board. At no time are the posts copied from the
original message board, not even parts of the post but the
substance is discussed, and quite often ridiculed. The site
is not referenced, rather the ideas and situations
contained therein. Could this be considered copyright
infringement, even though nothing from the site is copied
directly? I think that parody of situations is fair use and
free speech. Yes? No?
