I've pretty much stopped promoting Comedy Central since they stopped believing in the Fair Use doctrine. Comedy Central has probably been the nastiest of the TV networks in terms of going after anyone who posts any video of any of their shows, regardless of how short the video and regardless of whether reposting the video is totally legal under the Fair Use doctrine. And no, it's not their right to go after people who are reposting snippets that are totally legal under Fair Use. Not to mention, the blogs, and our readers, have done Comedy Central an incredible service over the past several years - I only started watching Jon Stewart after seeing his sketches posted on the blogs - Comedy Central responded to our charity the way every greedy corporation does, with a heavy-handed fist. So yeah, I have a problem promoting a network that's actually kind of nasty. Having said that, I'm posting this anyway since the issue is so important. Don't hold your breath for it to happen again any time soon.
