Jay Leno uses indie YouTube video; NBC gets it taken down

, , , ,

Obviously The System Works:

NBC/Universal used a YouTube video by an indie comedy duo (without permission) on The Jay Leno Show – then had the video taken down with a copyright claim.

NBC’s position seems to be that they own any content played on any of their programs? I guess it’s nice to see their position put so bluntly.
