Russ is writing from the perspective of a *teacher*. Perhaps he's thinking in terms of teaching students about copyright in the real world, not in the world of education. In their daily lives and in the future, they will not be able to rely on fair use for most projects. They'll need to learn about copyright at some point, and it looks like Russ is starting now with laying down those real-world expectations.
Most of us can't claim fair use most of the time. So we need to use Creative Commons, license material, or request permission to use it. I think it's great to show kids the benefits and drawbacks of each approach.
That was a challenge.
