In reply to the discussion: 🔥🔥🔥🔥Why does Fox News want to stop this video???? Almost 8M views! [View all]onenote
(46,151 posts)42. It's not "news" that is copyrighted
It is the audio visual presentation. In addition, using a company's trademarked logo without their permission also can raise issues.
Just so it's clear: my point isn't that Fox would prevail on a copyright or trademark claim, but merely that its likely that they asserted such a claim in a cease and desist letter.
The issue of whether and under what circumstances the use of a broadcaster's copyrighted material is or isn't fair use rarely gets litigated to a final verdict because the life-span of the ads that use the material tends to be a lot shorter than the litigation (and the point of making the claim isn't to recover damages but to stop the ad).

OP
I believe that Fox was trying to boost the asshole that she kept out of the runoff.

Sue for what? It's not manipulated media. They said what they said and it's all true.
