FAIRspot

UPDATE: Apparently CNN removed the Simon Cowell video per a request from the Fox Network. Lame!!

FAIRspot has recently been involved with a major copyright infringement lawsuit regarding one of our latest ideas, “Design Idol”. The entire premise of the show is based on the popular American Idol, but for designers—and judged by some of the biggest names in design. We pitched a pilot to the Bravo Network (makers of Project Runway), last Fall and things were looking very promising until early this year.

In January we received a “Cease and Desist” letter from the Fox Network (makers of Idol), telling us we were legally not able to do the show. Well, we don’t give up that easy! With some help from our friends in high places (you know who you are!), we were able to score some very public exposure on some of the major news networks. The fight’s not over yet though, this is an ongoing battle and we need YOUR support!

Be sure to watch us on the Larry King LIVE show tonight! The interview has aired in some countries already but will air in the U.S. and Europe tonight. Check your local schedule. CNN will provide a website poll during the show where you can vote with your opinion. We just ask that you vote for us! Viva la FAIRspot and Design Idol!
