NBC TRIES TO YANK YOUTUBE SNL CLIP

NBC on Monday sent take-down notices to YouTube as Saturday Night Live fans posted clips of last weekend's Saturday Night Live sketch featuring former SNL head writer and 30 Rock star Tina Fey doing a spot-on impersonation of Sarah Palin and Amy Poehler doing Hillary Clinton. People alerted to the YouTube video saw a notice reading, "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by NBC Universal." But as soon as one clip was removed, another took its place -- and the clip also showed up on numerous other websites. Asked what Palin herself thought of the clip, her spokesperson told CBS News, "She thought it was quite funny, particularly because she once dressed up as Tina Fey for Halloween."
