"If you look in the dictionary, the word “projection” has many different
definitions. I find it particularly amusing that in Merriam Webster’s
dictionary, the following two are right next to each other:

* the attribution of one’s own ideas, feelings, or attitudes to other
people or to objects; especially : the externalization of blame, guilt,
or responsibility as a defense against anxiety
* the display of motion pictures by projecting an image from them upon a
screen

This is a story that kind of involves both of those definitions, because
it’s all about a front group, created and funded by Hollywood, very much
“projecting” its own blame, guilt and responsibility onto one of the
most respected and thoughtful copyright law professors. And… almost no
one wants to comment on the organization’s shameful tactics. Perhaps
some of you might help in my ongoing efforts to get literally any of
Creative Future’s members to explain why it still supports the
organization after its shameful smear campaign over the past few weeks
and months."
