  • Wow, I actually enjoyed this video very much.

    It was interesting, informative, and I get to here what you think (which seems quite fair and unbiased). I applaud you for it :)

  • @paloma111000 First off, people like the Associated Press and RT (Russia Today) are news media groups, and they have lawyers and money, and I'm pretty sure they go through all the legal channels to get permission from the content owner to upload the videos.

  • awesome man !!!

  • awsom radio voice at 0:50

  • Jon, Not to be rude or anything but you blink too much :3

  • Comment removed

  • @PikiruMuzu - Um... YouTube doens't have any copyright laws -- The United States Government does. And they're pretty solid, actually.

  • The Golden Voice really is golden. This was an issue about copyright I have heard this before.

  • "I don't want people stealing my content." You just stole it again when you included it here, or is that "Fair Use," something "businessmen" like you don't believe in.

  • @samplingrate - Of course I believe in fair-use... I rely on it.

  • @Jon Woah dude, sampling grate is right. You cant have it both ways jerk.  Jon you are obvisouly an extremely selfish man.......

  • @CanEHdianRocker - No, he's not right. He's a fucking idiot for thinking that "stealing" and "fair use" are one in the same.

    And so are you.

  • @Jon Nice talk coming from a Partner. Go fuck yourself asshole. Im personally going to be a fucking nightmare for you. Seriously, why the fuck did YT give a prick like you a partnership....YT's standards have gone WAYYYYY down. Again, fuck off....

  • @CanEHdianRocker - Sorry bro, you were wrong. I called you on it. The appropriate thing to do would be to acknowledge that, apologize, and move on. Not get all burt-hurt about it.

    So, care to apologize for calling me a "self-jerk", and an "asshole"... all because *you* don't understand the difference between copyright infringement and fair use?

  • @Jon have a nice day...Im done

  • @CanEHdianRocker - Haha, an idiot, jerk, and a quitter.

    You'll go far in life.

  • @Jon dude enough of your verbal diarrhea. I still dont agree with you. Its a grey area when it comes to fair use! Not all reuse of copyrighted material is copyright infringement or plagiarism. Some uses are perfectly legal and ethical, thus getting them dubbed “fair use". Who are you to judge me man? Ill go far in life, you got that right. Ive done things you dream of. Now Im seriously done arguing with your tralier park ass. 

  • @CanEHdianRocker - It's not a question of what you "agree" with - it's a really cut-and-dry interpretation of US Copyright Law. I do this for a living. I am a professional video creator, and I know much more about this than you do.

    All I was ever saying is that *my* use of the clip in this video constitutes fair use. To suggest otherwise - in this instance only - makes you 100% wrong.

    So, I called you on it. Just accept it dude, you made a mistake, and insulted me for no reason.

  • @CanEHdianRocker - And where do you even get "trailer park" from? I live in a house, in an affluent New Hampshire town... you're so pathetic, you're just pulling at ad hominem straws now. Apologize before you embarrass yourself any further...

  • Ted should be Speaker of the House!

  • @ccz1826598 - That's a seriously terrible idea.

  • @Jon Then you can do it XD

  • @Jon Eigh Red vs. Blue didn't come on Youtube since 2008, and they have been popular before their Youtube, but I see you're point

  • OMFG WHY ISNT THIS MAN RUNNING THE RADIO OF AMERICA.

  • 3:15 Gary Brolsma originally posted Numa Numa on Newgrounds.

  • Not going on youtube? eeeeeehmmm 2 girls 1 cup? Only 1 probably #LOL

  • @SF4LVblack also nyan cat

  • oh yeah work hard to press a button and record urself, so hard.

  • @DJsharp707 - I'm sorry... how many subscribers do you have?

    That's right - STFU, you fucking idiot.

  • @Jon you do relise that subscribers dosnt mean how hard you work, look at ray william jhonson all he does is review 3 vids a week but has 2nd most subscribed and how am i a idiot because i am objecting to ur statment of saying its hard work? off course and no i wont stfu, you fucking idiot.

  • @DJsharp707 You are correct, subscribers doesn't necessarily always correlate to the difficulty of the work produced. But in my case, it does.

    If you seriously think all I do is press a button and record myself, you are a complete fucking dipshit. And something tells me you know this - so how about you quit trolling, and apologize for being a dick?

  • @Jon im sorry for being a dick.

  • @DJsharp707 - There you go.

  • @DJsharp707 Hey dumbass, Youtube is a hobby for pretty much everyone. Children, do it after/before school for the fun and inner activeness. Adults do it after/before work for pretty much the same reason. To get paid for it is just a bonus. Anyone who do Youtube video JUST for money is obviously missing the point.

  • "Biggest viral video of 2011" you should have added "so far." what about Friday?

  • @CheezLordLol - Check the date, thanks.

  • "When was the last time you heard about something going viral that wasn't a YouTube video?"

    2Girls1Cup?

  • Yeah Jon,I Think The Reporter's Really Kinda-Hearted And So Are You xD

  • @nostalu dont use religion in ur stupid little fights.

  • @nostalu Do You Really Have To Talk Like This? Do You Know Its Really Annoying? Huh?!?

  • @Jamesbentley47 It's under 30 seconds per clip bud, therefore it's ok for him to use it. He also has it flipped, further allowing him grant to use it. YOU didn't really think this through.

  • @Rzynox A few things:

    1) There's no-such thing as a "time-limit" to fair use.

    2) I didn't Flip it. I never have to flip anything, that has nothing to do with copyright laws.

    3) Don't be a dick to people when you don't actually know what you're talking about.

  • @bacicibanu12 - I can assure you... the job I have is quite "real".

    What crawled up your ass and died?

  • I wouldn't of went to their website anyways honestly. I don't do news websites anymore and I really don't think it would be as popular if it wasn't for him.

  • @Jamesbentley47 - You are so ignorant, it is beyond hilarious.

  • I'm From Columbus, Ohio. 

  • Jon, is that $22,000 just for your Jon channel or all of your channels? Could you tell me roughly how much you earn per view? I am guessing that you and your two microwave buddies make about $75,000 per year? Thanks.

  • that dudes who wanted their video to be deleted are fuckin stupid.

  • 5:19 that's what she said

  • So you dont care about the guy you just care about the ads?

  • @Costerguy1234556 Never mind this comment I forgot about what you said.

  • Question; if I make a montage consisting of under 8 second clips from various other videos and if I add background music can I legally sell a high quality version of the video for a dollar over itunes? Or is that against copyright?

  • @paloma111000 - As I explained to someone already , Ritchey stole the clip.

    The AP had permission.

    / WAY TO FAIL.

  • @Jon i assume with the opening line you just edited your voice?

  • @MultiCool55 - Um... no.

  • @Jon oh ok sorry...

  • @Jon what a nerd. WAY TO FAIL wow your cool buddy

  • stolen video?? once its on youtube its free for everybody ...hell i just might rip this video and download it on my computer you gonna take my computer or something?? lol

  • Why do you blink so much?

  • I agree with everything that was said in this video. But keep in mind that ritchey did not post this video for fame or money. He saw it on his local newspapers website and knew it would get very few views there. So he posted it on youtube where he knew it would get views and his only motivation for doing so, was to try to help this man. And it would not have gone viral if ritchey didn't post it here on youtube.

    But that being said, you can't steal peoples stuff either.

  • Your Radio voice sounds like Tom Tucker...

  • thats fucked up

  • For some reason this never showed up in my subscription box (R.I.P) so I'm watching it now. Very interesting topic!!

  • /watch?v=dh9xoeRc5Ls

  • dude Jon your awsome !!!!!

  • Jon, heard he's in Rehabilitation?

  • @ThomasDotComSlashHa No, he works for youtube....

  • Hey jon What is a good recording system for the computer that can record HD - 1080p HD? Thanks.

  • Good info,and interesting topic as always,well maybe not always nothing is perfect,but I like watching your vids to get another perspective on things.

  • I never see any ads on youtube (;

  • so would u care if i take the "is it a good idea to microwave airbag?" episode and put it on my channel but give u all the right and make sure people go to and not me and give you copyright and and all that fun stuff?

  • @monkeyman7719 - No. I'd have your account suspended.

  • @Jon alright just making sure. But would it be ok if i have a screen shot of one of your videos in one of my videos that i am making my self since you are one of my favorite youtubers and have inspire me to make videos and post them on here. im not trying to be a pest or anything im just making sure so i dont get suspended.

    If you feel like and want to talk about this more please message me and we will further disgust this, if you have time and fell like it.

    Thanks Jon

  • @Jon What about youtube poops I've seen several poops of the early microwave show and thats how I found out about it and became a fan of the show.

  • READ THIS COMMENT

    Ok, so the original video with 13 million views (which was gotten in just 48 hours), which was uploaded by the user 'ritchey', got removed do to Copyright.

    Later, popular news shows such as Associated Press, and others, uploaded the video. After they uploaded it, ritcheys video got removed for copyright! That's wrong!

    Copyright is soon going to take over YouTube. Give this comment a thumbs up if you agree.

    copy and paste the message

    

  • @NOOBNUT08 - Ritchey stole the clip.

    The AP had permission.

    / WAY TO FAIL.

  • @Jon Like you said they should of monetized it. When the AP took the video down they were being no better than the people that put it up and stole it from them. Now their reupload is lucky to be even half as popular on youtube as the original youtube upload. Like you said (again.) the AP should have monetized the video now they are going to lose profits that they would of gained from Ritchies upload. In this scenario both Ritchey and the dispatch are to blame.

  • @Jon Can we do it after we ask for permission?

  • @monkeyman7719 If you want it in your channel just favorite the video and if you have your stuff set up, it appears there as a favorite.

  • This homeless guy is truly amazing, What a shame that he was homeless.

    Amazing voice, really.

  • This video has more views then the actual video.

  • The idea was for this guy to get viewed and get a job. They did that. However, now it looks like the newspaper saying "Oh, wait. We didn't actually care about the guy getting exposed. We just wanted to make money off his story". I can appreciate it being the Newspaper's content, but they shouldn't lie about their "Noble Purpose".

    It was the guy that posted the clip that got the guy noticed. More power to HIM, not the Newspaper. At least, that's my view.

  • How do you monitize a video? Please reply, since I don't want anyone to steal my videos either...

  • HOW THE HELL IS YOUR NAME Jon?

  • @SunnyLovetts

    So as a baby, this man popped out of his mothers vagina. They discussed a title to call him by, they decided eventually that his title should be Jon, thus Jon became his name.

  • @SunnyLovetts - You'd have to ask my parents.

    They named me.

  • @Jon i think he mean's the story about you 'stealing' a not used account :D

  • @Jon I meant your user-name lol.

  • @SunnyLovetts - Watch my first Jon video.

  • @Jon I love your sarcasm. More entertaining then family guy! ;D

    Reminds me of my father.

  • @SunnyLovetts what kind of question is that?

  • @AkiraVlog I WAS talking about his username lol, Duhhh.

  • pour a fut agly cint hou lnow yhat?? <3

  • I love that homeless guy. He is such a happy person - even standing on the street he was happy. So glad to see him with his mother.

  • ...boat...

  • Yeah my dad just thought it was like ted's agents or something that removed it and he was going to show it to me and then he literally said "this video blows up and now he takes it down what an ass" no joke

  • I don't know why this video was for the second time in my 'new video's from subscriptions'. I watched it again (because i'm partly drunk) and it was one of the best video's i've ever seen, in a drunk state of mind... :D Keep on going! Grtz from Belgium!

  • Dang, I heard about the guy but never heard his voice till now. Its damn perfect.

  • fag

  • what kind of boat

  • @1161858

    a water boat

  • How much does it cost to buy a boat?

  • @XT167 KNOW i didnt. fucking read my other comments. CTRL+F is your friend.

  • @XT167 Stfu. I meant COMPANIES not individual work! GODDAM.

  • LoL =) haha

  • i ussally don't like second chance but i like it this time

  • i love it when you said biggest viral video of 2011 lol

  • copyright? tell that to RWJ!

  • well jon can you tell me something if you see this if they monotized it in what way is it earning them money exactly

  • So what about RayWilliamJohnson? He steals videos. Even though the hits go up a lot more, it's still stealing.

    I wouldn't mind if he stole one of my videos and I'm sure nobody else would mind. But still.....he's stealing the content...*Looks around the room* What is nobody with me?

  • @moviesunrated well he doesnt Steal them he links to the videos and doesnt say that it was his he actually gives credit to the posters

  • @314Marvin I think you read "So what about RayWilliamJohnson?" and decided to respond.

    I said the hits go up. I was implying he tells us whose video it is. But that's in the description. The majority of the YouTube community never read the description. He gives no credit in the video. And a lot of the time he either takes him time to paste a link or doesn't even do it.

    He gets no permission. It's still stealing. Promoting something does not give you the right to do what you want with it.

  • Who is working at the Columbus Dispatch? four year olds? They so should have went with your statements/plan.

  • I am in your Youtubes stealing your contents

  • That's a good point of view and also the logical choice that they should have made. As always good arguments.

  • I understand copyright but you have to agree there IS some companys that take it WAYYYYYY too far...

  • dude trust me no one is stealing your content no one is wacthing your content dude

  • Wow Jon you make many valid points, definitely good pointers for any aspiring youtuber. As for Columbus Dispatch, WTF were they thinking?!

  • So instead of them just being happy for the guy, they gotta try and cash in on him. Like they gotta make their money back? What a world.

  • @CyclopsRevolution You couldn't have said that better. They will act like they are happy for the guy but yes they "will" cash in on him, That is only a small part of the copyright design. Copyrights and anything having to do with, Has been took way out of hand. Soon in time it will fall on itself 8-)

  • what sux is he is in rehab now

  • BTW Jon, not being an ass here, but speaking of copyright stuff I saw some of your microwave shows on a different site under a different name, but the site got wrecked and 404'd.

  • @krogothxii - Then, I guess it worked out, eh?

    But, if you ever see that again - please let me know, thanks.

  • This video shows aswhy we call the OLD media. Even after all this time that Youtube has existed some of the companies still don't get it.

  • Goddammit I wish my life was narrated by the man with the golden voice

  • John, you are a money hungry man.

  • @cladimere - You say that like it's a bad thing.

    I just want what's rightfully mine.

  • Goddamn copyright

  • Jon was deffo putting on his radio voice for us there.

  • If someone has ad blocker do you lose money because of that?

  • god...... thats crazy id kill my self if i missed the chance for 13 mil views and all that money well okay not kill my self. kill the guy who posted it

  • @MetalFace0U812 - Well, luckily for you -- you can do that. I have a radio show in syndication every Sunday night at 7pm.

  • @Jon Are you serious!? Does it broadcast in NJ?

  • @Daggerspine107 - Well, it's syndicated on the internet now.

  • @Jon Not sure what "syndicated" is but does that mean you could provide a link where we could listen? That would be awesome :).

  • @Jon Oh awsome. Can I get a link for that? Thanks for the response btw.

  • @Jon keep these videos coming--not only do you have an excellent voice, you have the god given talent of real intelligence-something lacking most of the time on the internet.

  • @MetalFace0U812 jon is an ex-radio talker. he was on "the roadhouse" i think.

  • lol at the top two rated comments

  • Again copyright and trademark infringes upon people doing that publicly as Michael Buffer will make you fork over royalties. That goes for his brother Bruce Buffer as well. When he does: "it's time" or "we are a live" and you want to do it or get him to do it for you, then you have to pay him $30,000. So unless you go through that, then you can't do it publicly.

  • my question is,how do you make your videos not have glare form your glasses, Jon?

  • @ericAett - Good lightning.

  • i hate been poor..:)...and copyright for now...

  • This comment has been removed due to copyright.

  • This comment has been removed due to copyright.

  • Great for him?? Good call bro

  • 10 Million views in 3 days? Viral would be an understatement

  • i thought you were more like an artist i dont like business monkey man

  • heyy jon where does the money to pay youtube partners come from is it purely ads?

  • @hamster202020 - Yes, pretty much.

  • Jon great video,

    I love being able to see your contents again, you are really at what you do.

    Well I don't if it's just my opinion - but I really prefer it when you do 'Jon's World' without this bluescreen thing. I like seeing a desk, an office and all those stuff.

    Just wanted to let you know. The content is excellent as always.

    Ben

  • Took em long enough.

    Hey Jon, wouldn't internet fair use laws play a part in this case?

  • @didderson - Well, not - because the stolen clip wasn't anywhere close to fair-use.

  • Oh shit is Anthony Hopkins making another movie? They need to jump on that Hannibal sequel before he gets up there too much.

  • Jon, I respect that you know a lot about what your doing and are able to share your knowledge accordingly. However, I have one question. When the news program posted that video on their website, were they actually aiming for gaining money and attention world-wide, or were they just wanting to cover a local story? I understand they missed out on quick and easy money, however, if they were just doing a local story, it'd make no sence for them to get a youtube account to make money.

  • @KohhiAi - I'm not them, so I can't speak for their motives. But I know one thing for sure -- they don't like people stealing their material as much as anyone.

  • @xxfiver - Um... I make lots of other content besides WATJ... dipshit.

  • @Jon Your videos are definately worth stealing, if I was a thief lol.

  • @Jon You're right, and WATJ is the stuff I actually like watching best, as it is the most meaningful content (to me) =3

    Now that I read this myself, it might be understood wrong, but I guess you get the point =]

  • Jon you are just another greedy guy. You can't see much of anything except money.

  • @divotit - And you're just another asshole troll.

    So... I'm greedy because I wish to earn money for my hard work? I didn't quit my job in television and buy a house so I could work 50+ hours a week making videos for nothing pal.

    And more importantly, if you think money isn't important - you're crazy.

  • Greedy man.

  • @abbstah16 That comment doesn't make you look like a smartass. It makes you look like a dumbass.

  • @abbstah16 That comment doesn't make you look like a smartass. It makes you look like a dumbass.

  • Hey! My name's Richie! 

  • I hope ''they'' will see this video and be like this O_o

  • Last time I saw a viral video not on youtube? 2004

  • You blink a lot. Bright lights for recording I'm guessing?

  • @snaretle Yes

  • @Jon Lol xD Smartypants  :D
