[edit] Summary

This photograph, showing a figurine of Ronald McDonald hanging from a noose, was obtained from Snopes. It appears to be a police photograph. It is believed that use of this image in Criticisms of McDonald's is fair use because:

The photograph displays a unique and non-repeatable historical event.
The commercial value of the photograph, if any, is minimal.
The photograph adds significantly to the Criticisms of McDonald's article.
