Message to the FA Premier League From LFC Real Talk:
This video is evidence of potential foul play from Premier League officials, by blocking the video which remains public interest and is being shown to the public as a news report you are not giving me my rights as a journalist to report on current world events.
This is in danger of becoming a human rights case against yourselves.
It is in the Premier Leagues best interests to allow the use of this video or face scrutiny and the sport being brought into disrepute.
Under section 107 of the copyright act I am permitted by law to be able to use this small clip which is from Match of the Day on BBC.
Did you treat Match of the Day with the same haste?
Here is the law around copyright fair use in case you forgot
Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976
"Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statute that might otherwise be infringing. Non-profit, educational or personal use tips the balance in favour of fair use."
The law is clear so by blocking this footage worldwide you have infringed my human rights to work as a journalist and therefore I ask that you remove your block on the video so people can see what happened at Anfield in the Liverpool match against Tottenham Hostpur on Sunday, February, 4th, 2018.
