Knight Vs Viacom

Christopher Knight is a writer, photographer and film maker. Multimedia giant Viacom is claiming that he has violated their copyright by posting on YouTube a segment from it's VH1 show Web Junk 2.0... which VH1 produced -without permission -from a video that he had originally created.

Viacom used his video without permission on their commercial television show, and now says that he is infringing on their copyright for showing the clip of the work that Viacom made in violation of his own copyright. The clip in question was pulled by YouTube earlier this morning, at Viacom's insistence.
