Copywrong

Copywrong.PNG
Copywrong is a legal term used to describe intellectual material appropriated from the rightful copyright owners, but uncontested because the copyright© owners are too poor to conduct due diligence and fight the misappropriation in a Court of Law© .
While copyrights© are conferred upon the creation and publishing of new works, copywrongs are available to the swift and rich.
One famous example of a copywrong is the novel "For Whom the Bell Tolls," which most people believe was written and copyrighted by noted tough-guy author and suicideErnest Hemingway. In fact, the novel was written by J. Swinton Butz, of Libby,Montana. Detailed research has revealed that Hemingway read the novel when it was serialized in the Trout Creek Daily Herald. Hemingway went to Montana and took the original manuscript from a box under Butz's bed while he was in the other room making coffee.
Butz, an unemployed lumberer, never even knew it was gone until he went looking for a lost sock and found the box empty. Butz tried to sue Hemingway many times, but the wealthy author blocked him at every turn, even to the point of buying every extant issue of the newspaper in which the novel ran. Eventually, Butz was unable to keep up the legal fight, and Hemingway garnered the copywrong.
Butz died an impoverished nobody, who everyone thought was insane for claiming to have written the novel. He was eventually thrown into the Montana State Home for the Mentally Deranged, where he died in 1954 of injuries received from a gang rape
