A little lame in some places, but funny enough to read:

Is that legal? I know it's a free column and all, but I figure someone is going to get sued somewhere. Someone always gets sued

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Is what legal? Posting links?

The short answer is yes. Leading people to an article violates nothing.

[Elster88]

To clarify: Is writing an article using someone else's copyrighted characters and then posting it on your web site legal?

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I think it falls under the category of satire, which is legal. Otherwise Mad Magazine would have been shut down years ago.

[Willets Point]

I think it would be safe since it is clearly a parody which is allowable.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Yes - I have done some minor research on this issue, and parody is permitted free speach. Caple's safe.

Great minds think alike, SI Metman.
