The CNN/YouTube debate.

“I’d like to invite Joe Biden to come to Clio.”

Update 8:00pm Eastern: Who’s in? Rick Moran surveys the GOP field.
Bryan Preston has a new Hot Air vid urging Republicans not to run from the scheduled Sept. 17 YouTube/CNN debate. Click to watch:

I know. The CNN/YouTube Democrat debate was a circus. I said so. But Republicans shouldn’t sit out their turn. And conservatives shouldn’t abandon [...]

Universal Music Group is at it again: Another heavy-handed crackdown on a YouTube user.

Melting.

What is fair use?

The Hot Air video report on Akon that Universal Music Group didn’t want you to see is now back up on YouTube. That’s right. The music giant and the video-sharing site (who happen to be “strategic partners“) have backed down:

We originally posted the Hot Air report to YouTube on May 2. On May 3, after [...]

Gone.
This morning, I linked to the YouTube version of our Hot Air show exposing hip-hop misogynist Akon.
The YouTube version is no longer available.
This is the message you will now see: “This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Universal Music Group.”

We believe our commentary and criticism of UMG “artist” Akon [...]

You’ve already seen the stories about the Obama-linked video consultant who was unmasked as the creator the anti-Hillary Big Sister ad.
Here’s his confessional at HuffPo, “I made the ‘Vote Different’ Ad:”
Let me be clear: I am a proud Democrat, and I always have been. I support Senator Obama. I hope he wins the primary. (I [...]

Well, this is an interesting twist. YouTube, known in these parts for banning those who insult Islam, is now being banned for carrying videos that insult Turkey:
A court in Turkey on Wednesday ordered blockage of all access to YouTube, the popular video-sharing Web site, over a video deemed insulting to Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder [...]

The Jerusalem Post follows up:
Over the past few weeks, those who track the use of media by terror groups have noted a strong trend among Iraqi insurgents to distribute their propaganda movies and violence footage not through fringe, hard-to-find websites, but by uploading them directly to popular video sharing sites such as YouTube.
Many of the [...]

Please correct the record on our yanked anti-jihad videos. They were not “removed by the user.” They were removed by you.

There’s a new member of the Banned By YouTube club. He’s Nick Gisburne, an atheist who posts videos criticizing religion. He had no trouble uploading anti-Christian monologues to YouTube. But when he criticized Islam by quoting the Koran?
YouTube account deleted. (You can seen the banned video at his site.)
Here’s Gisburne’s latest video (not yet banned) [...]

Like I said earlier today, information wants to be free. And freedom is something Iran is just not going to tolerate. Via The Guardian (hat tip: Greg Tinti):
Iran yesterday shut down access to some of the world’s most popular websites. Users were unable to open popular sites including Amazon.com and YouTube following instructions to [...]

YouTube (which never seems to respond to e-mail from customers) sent out a cease-and-desist letter to top tech blogger Michael Arrington of TechCrunch:
Buried in my email this evening I found a cease and desist letter from an attorney at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, representing their client YouTube. We’ve been accused of a number of [...]

Jihadists do it. Why not gang-bangers? (via Boston Herald/hat tip - Brian Maloney)
One gang in Boston is using a new way to recruit - YouTube.
Luckily, the self-proclaimed Bloods gangbangers from “M.O.B. Charlestown Bricks” look too stupid in their highly rated home movie on the popular Web site to actually attract new members.
“Who red?” one yells.
“Sex, [...]

An unhinged anti-Bush conspiracy piece on YouTube posted by one Mike McIntee claims that the White House doctored the video of Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” speech. Here it is:

It was uploaded the day before the election and has received nearly 200,000 visits and counting, plus countless honors.
The problem is that this “Bush Lied!” propaganda is itself [...]

Lavish praise for YouTube from Time magazine:
It’s been an interesting year in technology. Nintendo invented a video game you control with a magic wand. A new kind of car traveled 3,145 miles on a single gallon of gas. A robot learned to ride a bike. Somebody came up with a nanofabric umbrella that doesn’t stay [...]
