It is asserted that the use of this image in articles pertaining to or in reference to Carson City, Nevada qualifies as fair use for the following reasons:

• It is a low-resolution copy of the logo;
• It does not affect the market for the original work — this is a seal created to promote and identify an incorporated municipality, not a commercial work sold to the public for profit;
• By the nature of the image, no free alternative is possible;
• The logo is widely identified with Carson City, Nevada via posters, official documents, advertisements etc. and so the inclusion of the logo adds significantly to the articles in which it is used
• Is allowed to be used by the public for the public, and may not be withheld from the public solely based on copyright status pursuant to the Nevada Public Records Act
