CNN Follows Fox News In Using DMCA To Take Down Fair Use Videos
,----[ Quote ]
| The "liberal" CNN has filed a DMCA notice to have video taken down that was
| being used by a conservative blog for commentary purposes -- again, almost
| certainly fair use. Also, it sounds like some of the video footage that CNN
| demanded be taken down wasn't even filmed by CNN, suggesting they don't hold
| the copyright on it.

Mr. DeVore Meet the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
,----[ Quote ]
| A California Senate candidate is using a Don Henley song in a campaign video
| on YouTube, and when Henley sued for copyright violation, the candidate fired
| back that it was his first amendment rights to use the song. It seems he
| failed to understand the nuances of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
| Maybe he should be complaining to the RIAA instead.b
