Suing someone is something that one can do, not must do. I doubt that Ebert is making any money from Kyle's picture. Joe DiMaggio wanted to sue Simon and Garfunkle for using his name in "Mrs. Robinson", and Ray Bradbury wanted to sue Michael Moore for using the word "Farenheit" in the movie name "Farenheit 911". I think one needs to pick one's battles and not everyone needs to be sued.
