Warner Bros takes legal action against Trump over Batman music
STEPANAKERT, APRIL 10, ARTSAKHPRESS: The US president posted a two-minute video for his 2020 re-election campaign that featured Hans Zimmer’s Why Do We Fall? from the 2012 film. It also featured the film’s title cards.
The tweet was still available following Warner Bros’ decision to take legal action, but the video had been replaced by a message stating: “This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner.”
Trump had captioned it: “MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
The president is also no stranger to artists asking him to stop using their music. Prince, Pharrell Williams and the Rolling Stones have all taken issue with the president playing their songs at campaign rallies.
