What aspects, if any,of Jake’s work are protected by copyright law?1 pointThe non-fiction accounts of the survivorsThe organization, structure, and presentation ofthe accountsBoth the non-fiction accounts of the survivorsand the organization, structure, and presentation of the accountsNeither the non-fiction accounts of thesurvivors or the organization, structure, and presentation of the accounts
Solution
The aspects of Jake's work that are protected by copyright law are the organization, structure, and presentation of the accounts. While the facts themselves (the non-fiction accounts of the survivors) are not protected by copyright law, the way in which Jake has organized, structured, and presented them in his book is unique to him and therefore protected.
