If they do not rectify things, get out of Venezuela, CNN, get out.' The move leaves almost no television networks left in the country aside from the state-run networks, which have largely ignored the national unrest" (Brandom, 2014)
"Thousands of teens and twentysomethings who are transgender -- identifying with a gender that is different than their sex at birth -- have turned to YouTube as a kind of public diary. As they start taking hormones or using new names, many are documenting their journeys on video, baring their souls and revealing their changing faces to strangers online" (Reyes, 2014)
flv files tend to be smaller than other formats. Second, Flash Video requires a flash player applet rather than a stand-alone video player… YouTube's Flash player has the standard bells and whistles, including volume control, play, rewind and a couple of buttons that allow the viewer to minimize or maximize the viewing screen" (Strickland, 2013)
The movie industry persists to forcefully battle both DVD and Internet piracy of its films at home and abroad. The movie industry has said that piracy's blow in lost sales of lawful DVDs and online films, is thought to be about $6 billion annually (Ahrens, 2006)
How has the movie studios responded to YouTube? What is the goal of the response? What can the movie studios learn from the music industry's dealings with online digital music and copyright infringement? The movie studios have responded to YouTube by joining them. YouTube has managed to strike some agreements with conventional TV programmers and movie studios for full-length content, typically for older TV content or independent films (Lawler, 2010)
¶ … coaching session was found on YouTube. The name of this session was "Sample Coaching Session with David Rock -- Choose your Focus" (Rock, 2008)
I believe this interview is an exceptionally good example of how coaches can use discovery questions to help their clients to find their own solutions. The GROW model that the book outlines is another example of how coaches can use discovery questioning to better assist their clients (Stoltzfus, p
insurgent attacks which were displayed on YouTube. The respective clips highlighted the Iraqi snipers' violence to American soldiers by showing "soldiers bleeding, vehicles exploding, troops loaded onto medical helicopters" (Gelles, Fekeiki, 2006)
Both firms need to feel that there is value in the combined entity that will ultimately be reflected in the value of the firm being acquired. Clearly, Google felt that this was the case, but it may have had less to do with the inherent value of YouTube than with the strategic value of outbidding Yahoo!, the rival firm that was reportedly involved in a bidding war with Google for YouTube (Arrington, 2006)
The company was unable to handle this legal action, and behind the scenes there was significant concern with respect to YouTube's impending legal liabilities. Unofficial sources have had significantly more to say on the subject (Cuban, 2006), but part of the impetus for the deal for YouTube in particular was the need to gain the ability to resolve these legal issues, particularly with the major media companies
YouTube was viewed by some as a flash in the pan site, largely because its legal problems were poised to bring it down in the same way Napster had been taken down. However, with Google's might and savvy behind the company, it was able to sign deals with the major media companies that pre-empted the bulk of legal action, clearing the path for Google to make the purchase (Geist, 2006)
Google does not make clear mention in its 2010 Form 10-K about any specific lawsuit, but Google was able to defend against the most significant suit it faced in relation to YouTube, a $1 billion suit filed by Viacom. Google succeeded with a defense based on safe harbor (Letzing, 2010)
S. Appendix A shows the popularity of YouTube around the time of the merger (MacManus, 2006)
Google's primary strategy beyond loss minimization was to professionalize YouTube, introducing advertising and licensed content from the major media providers (other than Viacom, apparently). Google has moved in this direction successfully, but as of 2009 the company noted in one of its quarterly reports that "it has yet to realize significant revenue benefits from our acquisition of YouTube" (Sorkin, 2009)
The legal issues that formed the bulk of the concerns of many external analysts prior to the deal never materialized, as a result of the deals Google made prior to the acquisition. The company takes full advantage of the safe harbor provision that allows for material to be removed without fault and this has allowed for the continued growth of both Google and YouTube (Wu, 2006)
His first role was only to sit and listen to a courtroom trial, and he said it helped him. "Listening is about seventy-five percent of acting" (Garner) he said, and he learned much from this experience
A biographer notes, "Garner, 76, became a star in 1957 playing Bret Maverick in the TV Western series Maverick. The same year, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association named him one of Hollywood's most promising newcomers" (Nason)
If you don't believe it, try to think of a fictional cowboy with a father.[With Maverick] I wanted to see how many rules we could break and get away with it" (Thompson 66)
In Asia, many business owners and anyone involved in media, will violate copyrights of companies and artists and typically do not face recourse for their usage. "Piracy has always been Asia's longest IP disease, and the continent's greatest obstruction to business and economic development as it renders investors to reconsider marketing their products in the Asian market" (Asia, 2015)
