Today, Wendy Davis at Online Media Daily published an article on the apparent resolution of our YouTube dispute with Fox Chicago. But it includes a quote from a Fox spokesman suggesting that the matter might not be over yet:
Progress Illinois's lawyer, Paul Alan Levy of Public Citizen, said he didn't expect the site to change its procedures. "Progress Illinois intends to continue excerpting from Fox, as it always has, subject to fair use restrictions, just as it always has," he told Online Media Daily. But Fox might have other ideas. "We are continuing to review the situation," a company spokesperson said.
Levy is quite right that we plan to continue excerpting Fox Chicago footage -- within fair use guidelines -- and uploading those clips to YouTube. Since our account was reinstated late last week, we haven't had occasion to do so. But when we do, it will be interesting to see how Fox reacts.
