Fair use rationale for Image:Sirius boom box.jpg

Image:Sirius boom box.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Sad to see BoomBox off the Sirius channel lineup today. I will be canceling my account if it's not brought back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.97.110.55 (talk) 19:32, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Point of View

Since the channel removal, all of the article updates appear to be pro-Boombox. Specifically, the last two statements "As of November 12th, 2008, Sirius repurposed this channel for "Pop2K," which plays mainstream/top-40 pop from the 2000's. No electro-rock alternative has been provided, with users curiously advised to look at Alt Nation, an unrelated format to date. A generic letter to SIRIUS XM CEO Mel Karmazin appealing the decision by the Programming Department to re-purpose “Boombox” is available here " are definitely non-neutral. 98.96.205.102 (talk) 20:54, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, this is getting silly.
