Viacom used my video without permission on their commercial television show, and now says that I am infringing on THEIR copyright for showing the clip of the work that Viacom made in violation of my own copyright! Writer, film-maker and "somewhat renegade Christian thinker" Christopher Knight
(No, not the Brady Bunch kid. And yes, I'm as disappointed by that as you are.) fights back via his blog, with links to his original material. The show in question is Vh-1's
Web Junk 2.0, and the clip in question was removed from YouTube, but preserved for posterity by
Political Soup (A .wmv file
here).

She's
dead sleeping, Jim. With UPN's
cancellation of
Star Trek: Enterprise (nee just Enterprise), the Trek
franchise is, for the first time in 18 years, without a weekly broadcast show. While many might agree that Star Trek needs a
rest, others continue to
hope, while producer/right hand of Satan (depending on which
Trekkie you talk to)
Rick Berman says the series (which is a
billion dollar baby for Paramount/Viacom) is going to be off the airwaves for at least three years. Here's to hoping the rest is what's needed for a
phenomenon that's fueled a lot of
geeks for a lot of years.

Dish Network drops Viacom. Dish Network dropped Viacom-distributed channels last night, and CBS channels in 16 metropolitan areas. I can't see how alienating 1.6 million subscribers is going to be good for business, no matter what it does to their bottom line.
