?????what has this to do with the subject matter about Youtube censorship and the correct use of liberal??
And yes extreme's are bad on either side.
And btw if you look at the EU...its going more conservative...But depending on country its not as bleak as you make it out to be..( from my perspective)
10 seconds or 10 hours, it doesn't matter. If you can't confirm the rights, the legal liability is not worth it. The girl in that scene, upon finding out that she was in it and didn't give express permission, could turn around and sue Disney and Netflix, demanding royalties for every time that episode was viewed on Netflix. Much easier (and more prudent) for the content owners to edit out the portion in question. Assuming it was a more substantial portion of the episode, they would have pulled the entire episode rather than risk the legal backlash.
The bigger problem here is that Viacom or whoever owned the rights back in the 90s apparently sucks at writing release forms. You need to have something in there like:
"ACTOR appearing in PRODUCTION gives any and all rights to their performance in PRODUCTION over to PRODUCTION COMPANY, including any and all derivative works, in perpetuity. These rights may be transferred to a third party at the sole discretion of PRODUCTION COMPANY, at any time, with or without notice to ACTOR."
That is just it. It may be a pejorative term...But they make no difference between liberal and SJW. They are used as the same word. While liberal is not that left. Putting people into those kinds of boxes only fuels the bad information. Its like calling all republicans nazi's....or all trumps idiots, or all ( insert race/religion)( insert stereotype) .
So i was wrong about 1 person i stand corrected. My point is still valid tough. The post that i was reacting to put them in a other political spectrum then where they should be. And sadly in this day and age that means everything. It changes how you bring your info, how you are open to discussion ( witch most extreme left or right are not) etc etc. And that was my point :P
You've seen the original unedited version of the episode then? You know beyond any shadow of a doubt that there would be no odd continuity issues if you removed only the frames depicting her? I assume you have some sort of formal training as a video editor to back that assertion?
Putting this out there: I do have formal training as a video editor. When you shoot content for anything serious (network TV, movies, etc) you shoot about 3 times as much content as you will actually use. You then spend a lot of time in post production cutting down every scene to the bare minimum needed for it to flow properly, so as to contain all the relevant content, with an absolute minimum necessary downtime for proper pacing.
When the original show creators edited the episodes for TV, they already did that. Generally speaking, cutting smaller portions of a scene after the fact heavily detracts from the original. For a clear example of this, watch some episodes of Sesame Street. When HBO bought the rights, they got the rights to all previous content, as well as the IP, characters, etc. To lower production costs, and because the target demo has such a narrow age range, they reused a lot of older skits. The new HBO episodes are only 30 minutes, as opposed to the 60 minutes of the older PBS episodes.
You can immediately tell in the newer episodes where the rough cuts are, and there are some things that simply don't make sense as a viewer. Sesame Street can get away with this because preschool age children won't pick up on minor continuity details, but tweens (the target demo for Bill Nye) certainly will.
10 years ago? Wow, you conservatives really believe in time travel don't you.
In addition, how can you possibly defend an educational show giving incorrect information? It's as if you all don't want kids to actually be informed.
You also have absolutely no idea how licensing works, apparently.
I would agree with that, however, there are rough cuts in the new, edited version. You can clearly see that. So this didn't bother them that much. Something else was the problem and I think I know what it was. Especially since their new episodes are "gender is a spectrum" themed bullshit.
Teens are no longer their target. Middle aged people watch it for nostalgia reason. Or at least they would watch it, because me personally, I couldn't watch more than 15 minutes.

They didn't give incorrect information. Defects represent only 0.4% (or is it less?) of the whole population. It's not even worth to mention it, but making a whole show about it? Give me a break.
Let's be clear I'm not talking about this decision. I'm talking about a general trend toward censorship and control on popular media. If it gets out of hand then maybe you'll see an impact. I however do not disagree with this particular move. It's the trend that worries me. I am more upset with Youtube's monetization model and how it takes advantage of it's creators. I think the market is wide open for disruption in this area. The advertising model is dying.
Pretty sure these new terms have affected plenty of "SJW"-channels as well.
In this case, "SJW" merely translating to people valuing respect to ones fellow man and informed opinions rather than the far-rights mental gymnastics.
Maybe YouTube should try other things, like... I dunno... better categorizing videos. Or even making YouTube divisions where creators will set their channels up.
YouTube News
YouTube Entertainment
YouTube Gaming
YouTube Celebrity Gossip
YouTube Sports
Etc. etc.
I know when the first "adpocalypse" happened, I saw people asking why YouTube doesn't just give advertisers the option of what type of content they advertise on and I think I recall later seeing something along those lines was implemented.
Creators should probably also be given a rating system they can select to identify what they fall under. Not perfect, and sure people can select family friendly for their offensive video, but those get dealt with via reporting and can have harsh penalties for misrepresenting.
OMG, someone took down a video I posted on Youtube. THOUGHT POLICE!!!
OMG, someone told me not to scream "FIRE!" in a crowded theatre. THOUGHT POLICE!!!!!!!!
OMG, I told a judge to go fuck himself and he threw me in jail for contempt of court. THOUGHT POLICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG, someone pointed out that I'm a fucking moron who doesn't know what 'thought police' means. THOUGHT POLICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
