Colbert resurfaces on public-access spot, sparks CBS-Paramount copyright flare

Stephen Colbert appeared on the Michigan public-access show Only in Monroe for an hour-long parody episode with guests like Jeff Daniels, Steve Buscemi, Eminem (via video), and Jack White. CBS and Paramount briefly issued copyright strikes against reposts of the clip, but later waived enforcement while the matter is reviewed, highlighting ongoing tensions between public-access content and corporate copyright amid Colbert’s post-Late Show activities.

"Race Against Time: TV Museum's Survival Hinges on Sony's YouTube Copyright Reversal"

The Museum of Classic Chicago Television (MCCTv), a beloved non-profit organization that preserves and shares vintage TV content, is facing the threat of closure within 48 hours due to copyright strikes issued by Sony through anti-piracy company Markscan. Despite attempts to resolve the claims, MCCTv has struggled to reach a live human representative from Markscan. The copyright complaints target TV shows that are 40 to 60 years old, including episodes of Bewitched. MCCTv hopes that Sony will reconsider the importance of preserving historical TV content and allow the museum to continue its work.
