"CBS This Morning" co-host Tony Dokoupil talks with New York Times education reporter Dana Goldstein, and with Oklahoma teachers who have struggled with low pay – including one, Carri Hicks, who turned her frustration into a run for public office.

Moves fast, but gives basics of what is a copyright, how it is earned, and what is okay to share and what needs approval. Some ideas are not copyrighted such as things done by federal government. Fair use is explained. Four factors are purpose and ch...aracter of item, nature of material, evalation of portion of work that was used, impact on market all determine fair use.
