As Morrissey once wrote, "I know it's over/And it never really began": This Charming Charlie, the delightful blog that mashed up Peanuts panels with The Smiths lyrics, has closed (at least for now), less than two months after its launch. But the culprit might not be who you think.

Techdirt notes that the blog's mastermind Lauren LoPrete announced last week that The Smiths license holder Universal Music Publishing Group -- rather that Peanuts Worldwide -- began inundating her with takedown notices, leading her to advise her readers that she's ending the Tumblr. However, she isn't giving up without a fight.

LoPrete tells Motherboard that as soon as she posted the farewell, she began getting offers from lawyers to accept her case pro bono. And so now, with a little help, she's filing counter-notifications with Tumblr, insisting the mash-ups fall under the fair-use exception of U.S. copyright law.
