I recently saw a video that was a monetized news story. It looked like this video had been recorded and then uploaded to youtube and was making he poster money.

My question can you do this and it not be a copyright violation?

Is it legal to Motorize news Broadcasts? You'll have to check in with your DMV. Are you looking to take your news broadcasts off road? Will they be 2 wheel, 4 wheel or even 16 wheel news broadcasts? Do you plan on racing your News Broadcasts. Are they domestic muscle or foreign street? Gotta make sure you have good tires for the weather if you plan on Motorizing them *Reads thread* oh you meant monetize.

I think if there's commentary of if you do a parody of it yes you can get away with that, but rebroadcasting is illicit I understand and just in bad taste. I'd report ever single copywritten video that go through the algorithm if I could but it would be exhausting.
 
While you may see ads, you don't know if the content is being claimed by the rightful owners.
