Fair use edit

It is believed that the usage of the image in Wikipedia constitutes fair use because:

1. It illustrates an incident related to a greater event which has happened a year ago. That particular still shows how Ho is angered by the press.
2. No free equivalent exists. All images are taken by the reporters, and the copyright belongs to the newspapers they work with.
3. The image is of significantly low resolution.
4. It does not hinder Sing Tao's ability to market their newspapers.
