I highly doubt if it's fair to blame Matt Stone and Trey Parker from South Park for caving in. I think Viacom wouldn't allow them to air the episode like they wanted to. Also I doubt they had anything to do with the take-down notice, because they have said from the start they don't mind people using their stuff, only Viacom does.

Any sane company would have done this. All those who shout at Viacom are just underage nerds/keyboard warriors. Admit it!


>> ^conan:

boohoo they took down your video. did they take away your lolly? no 100k hits? oooohhhh, you won't go to youtube heaven then. get a life.


I see the AstroTurf is out in full force....

I hope Jon Stewart picks up on this.

HAHAHA, did you miss the part in the logo where Comedy Central is part of Viacom???
You think Viacom is going to air a Daily Show segment about Viacom taking down videos on YouTube when Viacom has sued YouTube for $1billion dollars. Yes, I'm sure Jon Stewart will do a segment on Viacom trying to censor people and abuse DMCA like they have been doing for years and years now.


Its entirely possible. Knob.

Uh, no, that's the whole point. And it wouldn't be the first time Stew-beef picks on his employers, nor Colbert for that matter.

Thanks for the promote

I have heard about it. I heard about this one instance where a viacom TV channel was showing a clip show of internet videos then came back and tried to get the original owner of one of the clips to take it off even though they "borrowed" it. Pretty messed up...

The clip says it was posted on the 13th - and it's called "That's Tarrific"

Oi Dag, can you tell me what the airdate was for that segment so I can find it on the Canadian site? Thanks buds.

Although I love the message, I would respect it more if Jon Stewart wasn't working for this.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)
