Gibson’s Law Will Prevail

Faux Noise has shut down a progressive YouTube channel — and only a progressive YouTube channel — in a naked bid to defy Gibson’s Law. It won’t work. Clips of Faux Noise will continue to appear online no matter what they do. It’s called “fair use,” and Google had better check into it before pulling too many progressive channels — or else progressives will wind up starting their own YouTube. It’s kind of already happening with Media Matters.
