Fair use rationale in Oklahoma City bombing[edit]

The image of a firefighter performing his duties during a national tragedy is of a non-reproducible historic event. The use is educational and the image is discussed in the article. The image is essential to the understanding of the significance and impact of the bombing, and hence the image is essential to the article. The image was reprinted worldwide and became a symbol of the tragedy. The commercial value of the photograph is not significantly reduced by its use on the article.
