It appears that the Youtube Account of leading Australian sceptic Richard Saunders has been suspended over a copyright claim.

Saunders, possibly best known for his stint as the sceptical judge on "The One, a sort of "psychic idol" show, had posted a clip from a Channel 10 morning show in which homeopathic immunisation was promoted for preventing Swine Flu.

The show, 9am with David and Kim, involved "world authority" "Dr" Isaac Golden promoting the safety and cost-effectiveness of homeopathic immunisation against risky and expensive genuine vaccination.

Although clips from 9am litter Youtube, Channel 10 apparently decided this clip breached their copyright.

This story really could use a little Jeni Barnett/Ben Goldacre/Streisand Effect action.
 
Do you think 'Media Watch' on the ABC would report about it?

Maybe you should send them a copy of your blog and ask them?
 
It's worth mentioning that Media Watch can be downloaded via the ABC's website, or via an aggregator such as Miro.

If anyone can contact Richard:



I don't know if this will work based on the fact that this is Australia, not the US, but surely there's some parallel or something?
