Here’s yet another example of the TV industry’s love-hate relationship with YouTube: a CBS website hosting a YouTube clip that has been removed due to a copyright claim from CBS.
* Third party posts clip of a reporter speaking strangely at the Grammy’s on youtube.
* Blog hosted on CBS’ website embeds the clip posted by the third party in a post going over what happened.
* CBS files a DMCA takedown request on the third party’s video.
* Video goes missing from their own stories as a result.
CBS files a copyright claim against themselves o_O
