Fox Tries To Hide Paula Abdul Videos... Causing (Of Course) Them To Get More Attention

from the nice-try dept

If you follow pop culture news at all, you probably saw the recent clip of Paula Abdul's bizarre performance on a TV news program promoting the latest season of American Idol. In the clip, Abdul sways around, appears confused and occasionally slurs her speech -- a situation that Fox and Abdul tried to explain away as "technical difficulties." However, just as the issue was starting to die down, it appears Fox is giving it an extra push for attention. GMSV points out that Fox has supposedly sent DMCA takedown complaints to YouTube, demanding the offending videos be removed, as they try to erase history (even as plenty of people had already seen the video, and it was already featured on various talk shows). Either way, it's nice to see the press report on the topic quotes a lawyer referring to "the Streisand Effect." Ever since first (jokingly) coining the phrase, we've been waiting for lawyers to understand it.

Thanks Durka I will check it out.

Did you watch that Russian aircraft. It is the newest Russian creation and the things it does would be impossible by any western aircraft at present. Jets just don't do tail slides and summersaults. These are all products of vectored thrust. I flew jets a long time ago and I was very impressed.

I watched about 20 seconds of the clip, it was quite impressive. Is that the technology used in the Harrier jets?

I kept waiting for it to fall out of the sky some of the ways it was turning.
