As you've probably noticed, YouTube has already taken down the clip of the Colbert Report that I uploaded on Friday. Why?
"Copyright claim by Viacom."
Now, to refresh your memory, that was a thirty second clip. 33 seconds, to be precise (uh-oh, Masonic connotations there). Oh teh noes, we might've cut into Viacom's oh so terribly slim profit margin. How many CEOs will go hungry tonight because of our reckless action? Etc etc Not to mention it was basically free advertising for the show, aimed at a new audience. If anything, Viacom should be congratulating us.
Now I suppose I'll just upload it to another twenty or so video sites and link them all here, in protest. Sigh.....
