Yesterday, U2 performed in front of hundreds of thousands of people at “We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration†concert at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. ONE co-founder Bono took a few moments backstage to record this message to ONE members. Check it out!
But because Obama’s image is in the public domain, you can print it as much as you want on T-shirts, mugs, or… as in this case… cookies and pay no royalty and keep all the profits.
It's like a scene out of some bizarro, Wall Streetified Antique Road Show. The bankers come in with their old china and cabinets from the attic that they're sure are worth $20,000. Sadly, the appraiser informs them they're only worth about $850. Only of course they're not from the attic. They bought them only last year convinced $20,000 was a steal back at the height of the antique crap craze.
