COPYRIGHT WRONG

Film reviewer sacked after downloading illegal copy

Corporate giant 20th Century Fox has condemned the theft and copying of a film and has enlisted the FBI and the Motion Picture Association of America to track down the perpetrators.

Downloading a copy of the film for publicity purposes columnist Roger Friedman wrote a positive review that appeared in his Fox411 column on Thursday.
"I doubt anyone else has seen this film. But everyone can relax. I am, in fact, amazed about how great Wolverine turned out. It exceeds expectations at every turn," he wrote.

Friedman met with Fox News executives and, following the meeting, the company issued a statement saying the parties had "mutually agreed to part ways immediately".

[He described how easy it is to download any film or TV show and joked he might decide to catch up on some other recent films via illegal downloads.]
