Does that make sense to you?


Yes. I was thinking more along the lines if there was a contractual agreement in place. Though I haven’t seen the pleadings, so I don’t know if that’s the case.

it seems to me that he could attach whatever conditions he likes to the license for use of those words, including (theoretically) pre-approval AND/OR no release of the tapes themselves. Does that make sense to you?

Call it a "contract," or call it a "license." I think that the effect is much the same.

Trump seems to be asserting (i) that he owned the copyright on his part of the recording and (ii) that he gave Woodward only a (limited) verbal license for the use of those words.

It will be interesting to see it play out. As more facts are learned in the coming months, I am sure we will be doing more analysis.
