Shepard Fairey will lose AP case, urged to settle

The judge overseeing the Associated Press lawsuit against Shepard Fairey — over his famous "HOPE" poster of then-candidate Barack Obama — told the Los Angeles artist that he is likely to lose in court. The judge used the warning to advise both sides to settle the copyright dispute, in which AP says Fairey used one of the wire service's photos for the poster then sought to hide his use.
