Viacom focused on PR war win with latest YouTube doc dump; Ars Technica, 4/16/10

Matthew Lasar, Ars Technica; Viacom focused on PR war win with latest YouTube doc dump:

"Viacom and Google's fight for public sympathy in their copyright lawsuit continues with Viacom's release of more "smoking gun" documents. The media company says the latest show that Google "made a deliberate, calculated business decision" to profit from copyright infringement after its purchase of YouTube in 2006. Nonsense, says Google in response.

This battle for hearts and minds is heating up following the publication of key court filings in Viacom's $1 billion infringement suit against YouTube and its owner Google in a New York federal district court. "
