BBC Worldwide have insisted that a 3 minute political parody featuring video clips of Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern remixed with clips from the BBC's Dragons Den TV Show be removed from YouTube under grounds of copyright infringement. The clip is clearly a fair use, being a political satire and also the clip was created as part of a University of Ulster Masters project earlier this year. This news comes only 2 weeks after one of Ireland's Prime Time Saturday night Talk Show's, Tubridy Tonight, planned to broadcast the clip during an interview with the Dragons Den's own Peter Jones. BBC looked promising last year with their Creative Archive project, but now it appears that they have gone the opposite direction again and are trying to stamp out freedom of expression... UPDATE |
