Got a lovely email from YouTube yesterday morning letting us know that CBS filed a copyright infringement claim on the video we posted two weeks ago. The clip caught an F-bomb being dropped on live coverage of the December 19 snow storm. We thought it was all in good fun. Or not.
CBS Broadcasting, Inc has claimed some or all audio and visual content in your video Random Dude Drops F-Bomb During Live Storm Coverage on Boston TV News. This claim was made as part of the YouTube Content Identification program.
Your video is no longer available because CBS Broadcasting, Inc has chosen to block it.
We’ll be in the timeout corner if you need us.
Jesus. Apparently “fair use” only belongs to people with expensive studios.
