class=”centro”/> Citizen Journalism : one in which the citizens themselves, not the group communication, capture, edit and disseminate information. Today almost anyone carries in his pocket a quality camera, anyone can live narrate an event or happening through social networks and anyone can upload and distribute all materials generated by this activity thanks to the Internet.
JaimeAlekos, video journalist, is one of these citizens who seeks and saves the news to offer video through their YouTube channel with Creative Commons license. That is, the retransmission of the contents is permitted provided the author is acknowledged, it will not change the work and there is no profit. However, Jaime has been forced to report to a group of “pirates” for using his material without permission. Who? Several television .
According confirms affected El Diario, the chains included in the application are Telecinco, Cuatro, La Sexta, Telemadrid, Intereconomía and 13TV . All of them have issued Jaime videos without permission, without quoting him and sometimes even editing the video itself to clear the fly of the author and footwear put the chain itself. Currently, only 13TV has responded to this accusation by referring to the right to quote and alleging “failure to identify the authorship of the images.” The oddest thing of all is that at the end of each video shows a black screen where the author is identified and displayed more than the Creative Commons license.

A complete list with the videos that have been used without permission by these chains and similar cases in which other users report similar situations. Currently, Jaime and his lawyers have opted for a request for conciliation “as a warning”, but recognize they have high hopes to reach an agreement quickly.
Year 2008. Telecinco, considering that YouTube was getting profits from the exploitation of material that belonged to the chain, decides to sue Google (demand which, all told, lost in 2010). Much has happened since then, though Telecinco still without its own channel on the popular video site. But Mediaset has not been the only media group that has filed legal fight with YouTube. Internationally, others like Viacom, TF1 or FOX also have seen in court with the Google video site.
Others, like TVE , Antena 3 and laSexta do use the platform to upload small clips promotional programming. However, their presence is much lower than those they can get the big U.S. networks, where YouTube is an important element online strategy for each channel. Here we are almost out of obligation and to prevent others from putting their views. There they get the most out of the medium, posting the best scenes in order to reach as many people as possible.
Anyone who watches TV will have noticed, moreover, that more and more programs that draw on content coming from YouTube and the like. Sometimes the author is cited in other merely place a “YouTube” as a source and at most offered content directly without further. Will you serve this demand so that the chains begin to correctly attribute ownership of a video and ask permission for exploitation?
