I understand the importance of copyrighted material being protected.
But the idea of fair use, and what Youtubes rules are on this are very vague. Clearly Youtube for legal reasons will err on the side of removing things that are in a grey area, but I was hoping to get some answers to some specific fair use situations.
I have read that criticism can fall into the realm of fair use. For example, I can show a portion of an article that was created and copyrighted by someone else, and criticize it.
Is this true.
So for example, if I do a video on a New York Times article, and show and read five or six paragraphs of that article, and then spend 10 minutes criticizing it, is that fair use in general, and does youtube allow that?
And is there a difference between posting portions of written material that your criticize on a video vs. video material?
For example, if I post a clip of a fox news host, and I spend far more time than the actual clip from the show criticizing what was said, is that allowed?
Thanks for the help
