Perfectly written, Rachel! This bit was flawless and absolutely hilarious. I should have expected it by the end with all of the previous appearances, but nonetheless I was still surprised to see Brian show up on the ‘chatroulette’ with Jon. Had me bent over laughing! The Daily Show keeps getting smarter and funnier.

And really, who on earth would want to visit chatroulette in the first place? Creepos!

I loved Olbermann’s part. “At long last Sir, have *we* no shame?” Hilarious!

The Daily Show at its best.

It’s nice to see that Olbermann got some type of appearance on The Daily Show. Though he did sort of have to play with his image and feign “perv”, but at least there’s no hard feelings about his recent evisceration and maybe he’ll get a full guest shot, sometime soon.

On a side or not-totally-unrelated note: Does Mediaite or any other websites with which you are familiar plan to do anything differently as the result of the recent kerfuffle concerning unauthorized clips in a non-Comedy Central player?

Nine out of ten times, I watch The Daily Show online and though I saw (and read) this post last night, I didn’t view the clip and instead, I watched the full broadcast when it came available. IOW: The fact that I waited until after the show was online didn’t stop me from wanting to read your words or make a comment.

Again, as the link indicates, it doesn’t sound like they’re going to start suing like the Hollywood Reporter originally stated and I sort of took it from the beginning that YouTube would probably be their primary focus, but they have made some kind of statement and they do derive revenue from their player, so I though it worth asking.

On your side related note, Viacom gave the people at nofactzone.com a statement that states: “We have always tried to be as permissive as possible when looking at what might be fair use, and we haven’t changed our approach at all. Frankly, fair use works for us.” If mediaite keeps with using the CC embed tool, then they should be fine. However, embedding the video in a manner outside of the embed tool would most likely spur a cease and desist letter. Now, I do think that one could take short clips from a show and use in their own player and claim fair use, but full 10 min segments I think crosses the fair use line unless they embed by proper means.

@marcus.lewis: using the CC embed tool was the reason for my question.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I thought that when this clip went up last night, it wasn’t in the CC package… I hadn’t actually looked today, but the segment was circulating the web before TDS was in my Hulu queue.

(Apologies Rachel, if you had originally embedded the player and I just missed it because I didn’t hit reveal on the magnify wrapper and again, I wasn’t accusing you of anything, I was just asking)

@magister: You’re not wrong, but I think with them quickly posting the embed CC clip and dropping the other they are not in any sketchy situation. I don’t really see any big problem with that. Also the clip they posted wasn’t the full segment and imo would still be considered fair use.
