Sarah Palin and her political action committee, SarahPAC are being sued by a newspaper publisher for allegedly using an iconic photo showing the aftermath of the September 11th attacks without permission.
North Jersey Media Group Inc., which publishes over 40 local papers in New Jersey, told the Associated Press, Palin’s PAC used the picture on their website and Facebook page. The photo shows a trio of firefighters raising a flag at the World Trade Center site.
SarahPAC did not respond to a request for comment from the AP. The lawsuit, which was filed in New York City on Friday seeks damages and for the pictures to be taken down.
