FILE - In this April 1, 2012 file photo, members of Nickelback pose on the red carpet at the Juno Awards in Ottawa. Twitter has removed President Donald Trump’s tweet of a Nickelback meme aimed at former Vice President Joe Biden because of a copyright complaint. The removed post, which featured the group’s 2005 music video “Photograph,” showed singer Chad Kroeger holding an edited photo of Biden, his son Hunter, a Ukrainian gas executive and another man. A Twitter spokesperson on Wednesday, Oct.
NEW YORK — Twitter and YouTube have removed a video from President Donald Trump that featured an edited Nickelback music video clip that took aim at former Vice President Joe Biden. Trump’s tweet came as the president has repeatedly criticized Democrats for launching an impeachment inquiry into his July telephone call with Ukraine’s president in which Trump pressed for an investigation of his Democratic rival Biden and his son.

Too bad it was fair use. Shouldn’t be allowed to break that law just because you don’t like the person who used the video.
It's a shame the left wants social media to stop Trump from using their social media platforms . Fighting this man from every side. The true face of corruption is the democrats
That's the only reason. Why they removed it?
In fairness all Nickelback videos on social media should be removed 😂😂😂✌🏻🇨🇦✌🏻😂😂
Fair use
Copyright law outweighs inciting violence. Hmm.
They could’ve had a comeback, but nooooooo 😂
Nickelback should’ve sent a thank you note to creator. Haven’t had this much press since, well, ever.🙄
Nickelback? Seriously! realDonaldTrump should be playing REM’s EndOfTheWorld.
Good stuff.
If Twitter had a real backbone they would block Trumpy too.
No it wasn't...its because democrats like to sensor speech of anyone they don't like
Now sue for royalties!
Trump wins the MEME war
realDonaldTrump having his terrible Nickelback tweet removed due to copyright complaints is peak 2019 Even more 2019 is Trump asking a foreign gov't for help in domestic US politics. A criminal doing criminal stuff right US Senate ?
The video should win an Academy award
JonLemire I think we need to go further and remove all Nickelback music from the internet. Just to be safe.
JonLemire Only Trump could make Nickelback defensible in some way.
JonLemire It’s no longer shocking the level of disgust realDonaldTrump will go, no limits
Excellent Video!🇺🇸Truth!!🇺🇸
and worst of all, we found out our president unironically enjoys nickleback.
Thanks Nickleback for doing your part in the continued fight to censor free speech in America
The dopes at Twitter won’t stop it.
You know we're all really associating this band to Trump now. That should be a nice payday for Nickelback after they sue for damages.
One detail getting lost in the traffic.. Ukrainian transcript release wasn’t all of the phone call. Some are suggesting up to 66-75% of the phone call hasn’t been made public. Trump leaned only twice in released transcript. Trump begged 8 times! Where’s the rest of the call
who is nickleback................
Will they remove references to The 2019 Trumpkin T-Shirt!!
When not even Nickelback wants to be in any way associated with you.
😂😂😂
Try to legitimize targeted censorship much?
It’s still all over twitter. Funny as hell!
President Trump triggering Nickelback , Priceless
NON BIASED MEDIA LOL LOL LOL
So bad even Nickelback doesn't want a part of it
If democrats win the presidency; when you pay your taxes you'll be lucky to get a nickelback.
Pathetic.
By “doctored” you should mean “parodied”. That’s the reason it was “doctored” to make a parody of the original music video. Seems strange that your reporters don’t understand the basics of “fair use” copyright law. Maybe they aren’t even aware of that exemption?
I'm glad copyrights outweigh good and bad taste.
What a F’ing surprise! Trump thinks he’s above the law and rules and all Americans! When will people wake up!!
Copyright as a political weapon. Parody can take place within copyright law.
Very effective Biden will not be Pres
I'm not a lawyer, So can't anyone use a percentage or number of seconds of the a musical / video ?
Worst band ever 👌 2020 👌
I have it on my feed if you want to see it
💩💩💩💩💩💩
No one cares about Nickelback! It’s the best publicity they have had in their time of existence. And their product emanates from the same source as the APs feed! FOX40
That clip falls under Fair Use. That’s bullshit Twitter and jack did that.
What Twitter couldn’t do, Nickelback did 🤷🏼♀️
toolate
So if we complain about Nickelback enough can they be removed as well?
It was fair use. Corruptmedia
And now trumps son is showing same video on twitter
Meh, they haven't been relevant in a decade. Selective enforcement of copyright law is bullshit too. Now go have the rest removed so we don't have to listen to their shitty music.
Really didn't think 'Nickelback pulls a resistance' move would be part of this political timeline but here we are...
I don't understand this. That's probably a good thing.
Today we are all Nickelback.
Joke
What! They didn’t like .....
Hahahahaha
Censoring memes to own the cons
...and suddenly. Democrats across the nations designate October 3 as National Nickelback Day.
Brietbart polls, copyright infringements, saying you overwhelmingly won an election that you lost by 3 million votes, bribing China to dig up dirt on political opponents. Just another Thursday in America.
Nickelback is so wack for this. That video was comic gold. Have a sense of humor and quit taking everything so serious folks lol
FreeTheSpeech!
See nickleback isnt all bad
KAG2020LandslideVictory
No music for that monster.
Trump is living rent free in Libs heads so much, he has them defending Nickelback. 😂
Trump getting owned by Nickelback is yet another impeachable offense....😬
They’re tired of being a living meme.
And Nickelback changes their whole narrative with a request to stop playing their music....
Stop. You’re making me like Nickleback
Chad doesn't like Trump? Hmmm, is this good for Nickelback or not? 🤔
Nickelback is more popular than realDonaldTrump
Trump is Now Guilty of Copyright Infringement Too
Dear Lord. Trump even pissed off Nickleback. I'm guessing their lawyer went straight to the source and said, 'Um, so... Excuse me... Yeah, that was illegal, and maybe the band should just sue you.' Trump touts copyright infringement in China, yet allows it to happen here.
Now they playing with Nickelback they need to stop
I was confused when I saw Trump's video, thought Nickelback made it for him
Even Nickelback hates Trump
Geez, thought Nickleback would have welcomed the use of their music with arms wide open...
What's going on with the Prez just now
WHO CARES? He should back the video with 'His Truth Is Marching On'
Should Twitter and YouTube censor political messages based on copyright infringement?
Who's Nickelback?
Man. You know you’re in a bad spot when you’re losing to Nickelback
