This one is the example of the said Rights wherein it is at
the blog of Noemi. So, the story goes like this. Marielle is a
daughter of Noemi insisted "Mom, it is a photo of me wearing that My Pilipinas shirt
you gave me. More text messages beeped from classmates saying they all saw her
in TV Patrol". Hello TV Patrol, not everyone are publicity starved
and eager to appear on TV.
The said photo was used in the segment of TV Patrol’s
Philippine Flag used in Fashion and reported by TJ Manotoc on November 4, 2008.
The shirt was an example of non-violation since the image is that of
a Philippine map and NOT the Philippine flag. Talk of irresponsible use of the
Philippine flag! Walk the talk. Talk of irresponsible use of my photo!
She got to see the segment in an uploaded video, It is the
third photo where her daughter wears a pink striped shirt and behind her are my books in the
office. Noemi called the TV Patrol phone line and got hold of Joey
Gaburnida, TV Patrol Executive Producer who gave her the email address to write
her complaint.
ABS CBN TV Patrol committed two violations:
1. Using her photos without permission or credit (at the
least) and
2. Using a photo without the permission of my daughter
(Marielle).
So she will file a suit against a violation on the Philippine
copyright law as enshrined in the Intellectual Property Code of the
Philippines, officially known as Republic Act No. 8293.
Ayon kay TJ Manotoc, Nakalimutan lang daw niyang lagyan ng
credits dahil rush na. Hindi naman talaga maiiwasan yon dumating sa oras nasa
trabaho na tayo, kahit sabihin mo mang etchical
or unethical.
Yun lang po ang masasabi ko.
