I’m not alone in thinking Viacom is stupid :)
This is the second opinion piece by John Dvorak that I agree with, and am glad he is part of the mainstream media outlets. (article)
He brings a good argument to the table:
“what is an old 3-minute clip of the “Daily Show” worth on the open market? Seriously, what is its value? Zilch, that’s what. There is no market. The clip only promotes the show when distributed in this way; it has no intrinsic value.”
I’m glad the mainstream is picking it up, and realizing what is going on, instead of just creating more negativity around Youtube and Google.
