Psychic fighting YouTube clips sued by SF group

Jim Herron Zamora, San Francisco Chronicle

The San Francisco-based Electronic Frontier Foundation this week jumped into a legal battle involving efforts by self-described psychic Uri Geller - who is famous for claiming to bend spoons by mental forces -- to censor video clips of him posted on YouTube...

"Uri Geller may not like it when people question his paranormal abilities. However, he is not allowed to stifle public criticism by misusing the law," said foundation attorney Marcia Hoffman. "If the publication of a video does not infringe his copyright, then he cannot block its use -- it's as simple as that."
