Ted Cruz being sued for 2 million dollars | The Compost Bin | Forums

lol, classic, couldn't happen to a nicer guy

The failed presidential campaign of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz has struck a sour note with a Seattle music-licensing firm, which is suing the Republican for the alleged improper use of copyrighted songs in political advertisements

Audiosocket, with offices in Seattle and New Orleans, alleges in its lawsuit that the Cruz campaign used two of the firm’s songs in two separate political ads despite signing contracts specifically stating the music could not be used in political advertisements or television broadcasts.

It claims that the Cruz campaign’s Hollywood ad agency, Madison McQueen, never revealed the two songs would be used in political advertisements, one of which aired on Fox Business News more than 86 times.

Audiosocket is seeking $25,000 for each of those alleged contract breaches, and its attorneys said additional damages are under consideration. The ad has been viewed on YouTube more than 78,000 times.
