Interesting though, they use the 'downfall' movie as an example.

I wonder if this has anything to do with it: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1262254...

NPR ran a story on YouTube pulling the Downfall parodies and stated the videos were fair use.

I wish Google would add more anti-DMCA takedown options like "they're lying".

Showtime claimed copyright violation over a clip I posted from CBS. My only option is to give Showtime my personal information to point out their stupidity.

I'm pretty sure the video falls under fair use since it was a 59 second clip of a fight breaking out on public television (possibly a crime).
