#425 โ€“ Andrew Callaghan: Channel 5, Gonzo, QAnon, O-Block, Politics & Alex Jones

That's a tough truth to accept because a lot of people want a quick fix to things. And I don't blame people who go out and give bologna sandwiches out to the homeless.

Each person is so complex. Now imagine drug abuse, what that does to the brain. Yeah. Trauma, childhood trauma. There's so much to unpack. And then just the belief that they're the undesirables, that they don't deserve to be a part of society because they failed a fundamental obligation like taking care of their kids.

Yeah, it was illegal. Fox 5, I guess. So the documentary was an hour and 45 minutes. We used 10 seconds of a news clip that was publicly broadcast by Fox 5 Vegas. And according to the Copyright Act of 1976, you're allowed to use any publicly broadcast news clip in a transformative capacity in any documentary film or research paper or broadcast or anything.

They, specifically this corporation called Gray Media that controls the TV stations in almost every small town, They had lawyers hit up YouTube and YouTube complied with an illegal copyright strike to get our video immediately removed. And I'm a YouTube partner. I'm in the YouTube partner program.

Yeah, but I'm taking them to court because... I have the means to be able to do so. I'm a larger creator. I have an audience. I have the financial backing to do it. I can't imagine how many people out there are smaller creators with not as much consumer of a fan base they can mobilize against someone like Fox 5 or the money to go to court.

So I want to take them all the way there to set precedent for future cases so that these giant mainstream media conglomerates can't copyright strike documentary filmmakers at will. It doesn't make sense.

Well, I talked to my YouTube partner today and he said that the Fox 5 lawyers have two weeks to comply with my counter appeal. But, you know, I spent 20 grand on human voiceovers in five different languages. So I invested probably in total like 70K into this video. So even if it gets reinstated, the steam's kind of been taken out of its trajectory.
