If you have sporting content in your hands + are willing to share with the world, be careful out there because one of the most followed accounts in the archival community, Dave Volsky of DV's back door channel got terminated this past week, according to fellow archivist "Bart Simpson". I agree with one of the posters that channels like Volsky put a spotlight not only on how far the game has come, but the forgotten or underrated players not often mentioned in the sport discussion.

 

I hate to say it, but I think the NFL did this because they are uber-insistent on today's NFL being "the" NFL, and CBS in turn having a hand in it because they think today's AFC NFL on CBS should be "the" NFL on CBS as well.

Just got word from Michael Pannoni that WQED Pittsburgh content is being pulled down. Even just random promos from that PBS station got a copyright strike for him.

Anyone with Pittsburgh recordings yet to digitize - please don't bother uploading anything from the PBS station.

So I sporadically make videos on my YT channel (Jerseyfla). I have a lot of playlists on my YouTube channel that are public and private. I specifically made one for different TV station sign offs from areas that I have lived in my life and military career.
 

Recently, I decided to make a nice piece of “nostalgic ASMR” if you will, something TV junkies can go to bed to, and create a montage of those TV station signoffs from the different regions I have lived with a title slide saying “It’s Bedtime In ________. Let’s Signoff”. I didn’t credit the YT channels I captured the material from by name, just saying “Credit to the YouTube Channels who posted these sign-offs. This video is intended for nostalgia and fair use. No copyright infringement is intended.” Last night Drew Techner who posts a bunch of TV and Radio airchecks from Philadelphia and NYC commented on my Long Island and Philadelphia Signoff videos with time stamps that I stole signoffs from his channel. I commented back stating that him accusing me of stealing his videos is the same as me stating that he stole them from the station he posted them from and that there are many montage videos with News Opens, Station IDs, and Signoffs on YouTube and I am not making any money off of any of my videos. An hour ago, I received a copyright strike on my channel for using some of his signoffs in two of my videos. What is everyone’s view on this? I see nothing wrong with it. It’s all copyrighted material owned by the station groups, not him. Heck, I even told channels who post chronological news open montages “Here, you are missing mine”. I mean if it’s a one for one entire video reposted and taking credit, yes that is over the line but when you use pieces of it that’s another thing. Should I fight it?

Usually when I download videos off of YouTube, I keep them for private use.

 

From now on, I would ask the user(s) before reposting clips on there.

You definitely need to ask permission and credit appropriately in the description, and be kind about it or remove the video. 'Credit to everyone' might be fine for a 10 year-old's Roblox video but you're already playing with fire with compilations without credit; there are others in the space that have ruined it for everyone and just swipe without mercy, and it's always rude and uncalled for.

How many compilation videos of local news opens especially the major market stations from NYC, LA, and Chicago have any mention of every channel they took clips from? Nearly none. And I bet 90% didn’t ask permission either. I think Drew Techner is just sore about it and doesn’t get the nostalgia purpose behind it. He doesn’t make money from it and nor do I. Also my Publix Holiday Commercial Mega Montage made it to a couple of newspapers recognizing its nostalgia to Floridians. Publix’s marketing team never had a problem with it.
