Rolling Stone sues for its piece of Pitt

Rolling Stone is suing a news syndication agency for disseminating photos of Brad Pitt in a dress from the magazine's October edition.

The magazine filed suit last week in U.S. District Court accusing the agency of infringing on the copyright of photographer Mark Seliger and the magazine's publisher.

The magazine gave the agency limited permission to ``use the images of Brad Pitt accompanying the feature article . . . so long as they are used within the context of the magazine,'' according to the lawsuit.

``They've cropped out all of the references to Rolling Stone and the photographer,'' Kelli L. Sager, Rolling Stone's attorney, said Monday.

Mike Parker, co-director of Headline News LA and a defendant in the lawsuit, denied that his organization misrepresented itself and said the company has told its sub-agents to stop selling the material.
