— The Chronicle Herald reports that WWE is in a dispute with Dave Carroll, a man who recorded a song about United Airlines for breaking his guitar. He had his music video, “United Breaks Guitars”, pulled by YouTube due to a copyright violation on behalf of WWE.
He contacted WWE, who told him it was probably a clerical error and there shouldn’t be an issue. Carroll said: “He said as far as he knew, there would be no issues with copyright and infringement. He didn’t know why (it happened) but he would be looking into it to get it reversed.”
The video was back on YouTube as of yesterday. Carroll still wants an explanation, but YouTube has not commented.
