UNREAL: Steven Crowder Demonetized by YouTube For Original Parody
Crowder’s channel may be in jeopardy because he refused to submit to the absurd request of a large music publishing company.

Steven Crowder, the online news and entertainment personality famous for his “Louder with Crowder” show and stunts at left wing college campuses throughout the United States, has been punished by YouTube’s copyright system for a parody video he says was entirely original and held no copyrighted content.
In episode 459 of “Louder with Crowder”, a parody song was used that sounded similar to the song “Calling Dr. Love” by KISS. Warner Chappell, the legal arm of Warner Music Group, determined this constituted a copyright violation, and requested YouTube to take immediate action against Crowder.
Typically, if a video holds copyrighted music, the person who created the video will receive no compensation for the ads played during or before the video. This money instead goes to the copyright holder.

In this case, Crowder will receive no compensation from YouTube for the hour-long show he starred in and produced, which featured various right wing guests from around the world, including Paul Joseph Watson. Instead, Warner Chappell would be paid for Crowder’s work due to the copyrighted content.
While many would consider it absurd for an hour long video’s profits to be handed over because of a three-minute song, the absurdity is compounded by the fact that Crowder did not use the song. His production team created an original track that shared similarities with the original.
In other words, Crowder’s video was demonetized because audio used in his show sounded similar to audio owned by the Warner Chappell.
Crowder then took the extraordinary step of appealing this decision, which if done frequently, can lead to the termination of a YouTube account.
Unfortunately for the online content producer, his appeal was immediately denied not by YouTube, but by Warner Chappell.
So now Youtube and complicit corporations will LITERALLY take down a video for including a direct parody track that we CREATED FROM SCRATCH! This system needs fixing. Now. pic.twitter.com/JrBNGRrsyP

Because Warner Chappell denied his appeal, claiming they do indeed own the music in the video even though it is an originally produced track created by Crowder’s team, Crowder’s account is in jeopardy. YouTube is giving Crowder 7 days to reverse his appeal and allow all profits generated from the video to be garnished by Warner Chappell, otherwise, YouTube will delete his video and place a “copyright strike” on his account.
With only three copyright strikes, YouTube accounts can be placed in a limited state, or even terminated.
This creates an environment where YouTube content creators are expected to simply bow and submit to any large company or individual claiming copyright. YouTube itself does not mediate disputes, and instead allows the party alleging it has been injured to make all determinations.
This would be akin to allowing any person in civil court to act as plaintiff and judge: they claim they were wronged, and then immediately judge in their own favor.
Many YouTubers, including the iconic channel PewDiePie, have lamented YouTube’s copyright system.
In a video posted earlier this year, the YouTuber revealed how the copyright strike system can be used not only by large corporations to harass independent content creators, but also by individuals on YouTube as a tool to censor speech they disagree with.

YouTube Censors Videos Posted by Independent Journalist Ford Fischer of Protests Near Biden’s Inauguration
Raw journalism hurts the globalist elite.

Independent journalist Ford Fischer of News2Share is reporting that three of his YouTube videos are being censored.
Fischer announced in a Twitter post that the Google-owned video streaming service has targeted three of his videos that showed interactions between various protesters of different political stripes on Biden’s inauguration day.
Absolutely unbelievable.@TeamYouTube has now deleted three raw videos and SUSPENDED MY ACCOUNT for raw footage I took on the day of President Biden's Inauguration of religious extremist protesters being confronted by both leftist and pro-Trump activists.
We will fight back. pic.twitter.com/qq59HJyf3A

The second video @TeamYouTube erroneously took down was a speech I filmed at the December Million MAGA March.
This documentary footage was licensed by BBC, had a story about it in Rolling Stone, and WAS USED IN THE IMPEACHMENT HEARING ITSELF.https://t.co/jTuGAs5SCZ pic.twitter.com/buWgYES2tf

The folks at @TeamYouTube sent this email to go with the three takedowns and account suspension.
They ban "misleading content that alleges widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S."
My content isn't misleading nor does it allege – it shows what happens. pic.twitter.com/tkXkXu79Ci

So, you have action items:
-Tweet @TeamYouTube telling them to lift the suspension on Ford Fischer's News2Share account.
-Demand that YouTube work *with* content creators to find solutions rather than use punitive measures against their content creators acting in good faith.

I wish this could be resolved privately, but @TeamYouTube seems to have no desire to constructively – rather than punitively – deal with perceived privacy violations.
I am therefore including a screenshot of my response email below. pic.twitter.com/64C1Q7KBhM

YouTube has generally been on a rampage of punishing my account for work so valuable, it was cited in the impeachment trial twice.
Following an article by @JosephWulfsohn, they partially reversed course before.
This is why speaking out works.https://t.co/5kzqq0p4iE
— Ford Fischer (@FordFischer) March 4, 2021
Just now, @TeamYouTube denies my appeal, upholding a suspension for a video in which several people confront a “religious” hate group.

Big League Politics has reported on YouTube’s hostility toward any messages that may cause the masses to doubt the official globalist corporate narrative:
Dr. Scott Atlas, who has emerged as President Donald Trump’s most credible advisor on COVID-19 policy, is being censored by YouTube.
Atlas, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute, has spoken out consistently against the mass hysteria surrounding COVID-19. YouTube recently censored a Hoover video in which he was speaking about the lies peddled by the medical establishment during the pandemic.
“They put in a lockdown… They did not calculate at all the harms of the lockdown, the consequences of the lockdown. They did a stop COVID 19 at all costs. They used hypothetical projection models that were so egregiously wrong, far, far off. Yet they keep citing those models,” Atlas said while appearing on Uncommon Knowledge with Peter Robinson. The video is still available on the Hoover Institute website.
“All over the world, Switzerland, Iceland, Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Asian countries, there is a minimal, if any, risk of children transmitting the disease, even to their parents. It’s not just that children are not at risk at all from this disease. They also do not even transmit the disease,” he continued.
“The science is really not science. It’s a fear-based and cherry-picking of certain studies. It’s very poor analysis. As I say many times, a lotta smart people are doing a lotta sloppy thinking,” Atlas added.
In addition to being targeted by Youtube, Fischer has also been targeted by other tech monopolies as well. Facebook has regularly stopped him from hosting his content on their platform for various reasons.
I am a journalist, verified on Facebook. Today I spent the entire day covering various armed groups throughout Louisville.
As I just finished a livestream, I tried to log in and it appears @Facebook deleted my account. pic.twitter.com/PRZohhzCxC
— Ford Fischer (@FordFischer) September 5, 2020
However, Fischer has shown that the tech giants will capitulate after enough public pressure, as he has had videos reinstated on the major platforms after being initially targeted by censorship measures.
While Facebook never informed me why this happened, this was my last post before Facebook deleted my account.
Presumably, @Facebook mistook me writing about gun violence as me somehow endorsing or participating in it.
Facebook needs to fix this.
Algorithms cannot judge humans. pic.twitter.com/09PkJqa4so

By targeting popular journalists with large followings such as Fischer, the Big Tech giants are making themselves increasingly loathed among the masses. The behavior of these tech monopolies is setting the stage for new regulations that will break up their stranglehold or market alternatives rising that will protect freedom of speech.
