Vegas Tunnels (COMPLETE VIDEO)
🕑 Added 2024-03-31 05:19:31 +0000 UTCAs some of you may know, Fox 5 Las Vegas illegally had our video removed for 'copyright infringement,' despite that we used only about fifteen seconds of their publicly broadcast news clip while giving a brief profile on the background of Robert Banghart, directer of the Shine a Light foundation. Not only did we leave their watermark on the video so you can OBVIOUSLY see that it was originally broadcast by FOX5 .. but beyond that, what we did does NOT constitute copyright infringement.
Section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1986 (17 U.S. Code § 107) states that fair use of copyrighted material "for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright."
Now our YouTube channel has a strike, and things are looking downhill. I'm so bummed for a number of reasons. Not only because that video really represented, to me, an evolution of our craft - but also because I spent over $20,000 in paying for human voiceovers in Spanish, German, Brazilian Portugese, French and German, which wasn't cheap .. especially considering that the video is over an hour and forty minutes long. I was hoping to recoup those expenses with YouTube adrev but it's looking like a sinking investment, but I'm uploading it here if any real ones wanna support.
Best,
AC

it's now on my bucket list to check out that art gallery down there! would be sick if they'd let me paint something for em. real good vibes. great doc!

Because they hate the real voice of the people. Channel 5 is REAL NEWS, snowflakes!
Connor
Robert is a really great segment to end this with. Such a great and well spoken guy who understands a lot about the hows and whys of the lifestyle coming from that in his past but doesn’t hold it over them like Ricci. Also very genuine and human because you can sense his frustrations with probably years of working with these people

restraining orders are to give evidence of a crime after the crime has taken place with no witnesses. if someone beats their partner and there are no witnesses its very hard to charge but if cops roll up when the perp is still within vicinity of the victim they can charge the perp with a violation of court order

Thank you Andrew for your contribution to society.

Will there ever be a part 4 to the Ocean City Nights video?
MySelf69
they know whats in for them after that help. Shit goes deep. Some people really do see the system for what it is and its hard to put on that mask again (construct it to begin with) and live in SoCiEtY
MySelf69
do it. youtube doesnt deserve those premium subscriptions, its a shit-show of massive-revenue-seeking. Kind of shit that makes pirating seem cool.
Tristen McColley
I love Andrew’s commentary so much, I wouldn’t watch a show he made without him (ex: AGNB), but I think in terms of fighting the force of large networks, I think it would be beneficial to have more faces to do this kind of journalism. You can’t be everywhere at once man, I trust that you’d know best who gets to share these messages with you.

Cody Malcolm
bro took an axe to the head and you have the audacity to imply he might have been acting, lol. I'd assume it was empty because they get their residents jobs and it appeared to be daylight outside.
Grey Purity
I'd have liked to have heard what some of the homeless people thought of Shine a light tbh, especially any of them that started the programme but didn't finish it. Robert (from SaL) came across incredibly well, he's either a truly amazing actor or he's real as fuck.
Stewart Harrington
Mama keeping it 55th
Anthony kemp
Am I the only one who was confused why Shine a light was just empty? As someone who has been in a mental psychosis and went through the dark side of detox centers. Especially the thing of never having to spend, because you give all your money to their program while you’re in it. There’s just another side to some of these centers within the US
Michael John

I really love what Robert is doing, but man, abstinence only is not the way to go. It has been proven time and time again that it rarely works and has the highest level of relapse. I understand he wants to work with people who are ready to change...I just really hope he allows methadone, Suboxone/tec, vivitol, etc, in the program.

Chairman Meow
I think I had seen three specials on this previously, so to be honest I wasnt very hype for this one from C5. But wow, was I wrong. Like almost every other thing they've put out, this was totally outstanding. Great questions asked, great camera work, some real passion and effort felt behind it all. Wonderful job boys. YouTube is really harming themselves too with this behavior. They better be careful cause its a slippery slope to authoritarianism. 13:15 got a pink floyd vibe!
Chairman Meow
I second this. I'll buy you a deep dish at Pequods.

Hazel Hallas
The fella from Shine A Light was such an impressive and eloquent symbol of who these tunnel people can be. Talk about having all your facilities and being dialed in and having the pulse of the issue engrained in you, he is a beast and gives me hope that the homeless in LV are not hopeless. Just like me and so many others that arent as unfortunate though, we all have blockades and built in excuses for not doing more for ourselves, for not escaping our mental blockades. We can all achieve much more if we give in and accept help. God bless
Jennifer Bakhos
god bless channel 5 keep up the good work

William Seccareccia
Hey man, love your stuff from YouTube, recently joined your Patreon. I hope you keep this up, it's really fascinating watching how well you interact with people and get these interviews. Not sure if you'll see this but would you ever consider doing one like this on the homeless and crime situation here in Anchorage Alaska? It's been getting real worse over the years, tent cities popping up all over town and really becomes a problem for the community in the winter. It would be interesting to hear their side of everything without the black and white from local media.
Rosie Ruzicka
And my axe
charlie
i support you 100%, I think your content is literally the best journalism I have ever seen probably and have been watching for years but taking this moment to start contributing financially here. please dont be bummed about the strike as Fox5 gets flamed into oblivion for what they did- I will be sending them a letter and leaving comments on all their channels.

Just finish this and goddamn, so sad this got taken off YouTube. I had to support, this content is amazing!
Josh LeMasters
It's really shitty that fox did this to you. I'm really enjoying being a patron and all of the content you are putting out here. I hope this incident doesn't deter you from continuing to make great content for YouTube as I would love to be able to share with people who aren't on your Patreon. I was just telling my mom (who is on the opposite end of the political spectrum) about your Vegas series and it started a conversation about homelessness and about a young man in her town that she had just recently tried to help. She was trying to help fund him getting to any family member that would help him. It turned out he didn't have any family, and that he refused help from aid organizations. I related the similar story from the Vegas tunnel series and we both cried a little about the incredible sad circumstances of people. We talked about how we both had soft spots in our heart for these people. It brought us closer together, when typically news recently has created tension between us. Keep doing what you are doing. I really appreciate how you are seeking to find common ground with people you don't agree with.

FOIAs only work for federal agencies. Nevada's got an open records act, but I'm guessing it doesn't have the teeth FOIA has
Brandon Brown
My wife and I just finished watching...both were homeless in Durham NC and thanks to some help and support were able to get out. I cannot support what this video speaks on enough. From the rules of the homeless society to the individuals personalities, the freedoms and the traps, all shown exactly the way I experienced it. Just incredible...Boxer said it best though. The best anyone can give is a smile and a handshake. You lose your humanity and that has nothing to do with the drug's. That's has to do with society. And that programs approach to an attempted solution should be THE model for any and every program moving forward. Well made sir. Well made!
Christopher
This hits hard and true. Thanks for doing a doc well and not just giving people more footage to gawk at. I hope you fight the YouTube strike because this doc could do a lot of good.

Oobabakakajo
Literally got cut off 1/2 way through watching this on YouTube and was super confused. Then I saw the explanation for why it happened and now I've downloaded Patreon for the first time and subbed to Channel 5. After watching the YouTube update, I feel compelled to share that this documentary doesn't dissuade me from wanting to visit Vegas. Actually, it's the opposite; like so many of Channel 5's videos, this doc humanizes people that have been ostracized for (in many cases) simply having a streak of bad luck that's compounded by processes and/or systems that punish that bad luck. Living without a financial safety net isn't a crime. Unfortunately, the YouTube strike against this video implies it should be. Vegas' laws - as mentioned in this documentary - all-but-literally say it is. Fingers crossed you get some proper help from YouTube support asap but, more importantly, I hope I'm not the only one inspired to support the channel through other means so you guys can keep up the kind of quality reporting that's virtually nonexistent anywhere else online right now. Love and hugs.

Thank you so much for sharing this video, Andrew & team! I went through Andrew's own disappointment journey realizing that it's not really just an ID that's a bridge people need. It's also sad that the Shine A Light director can't recognize that sobriety is the roadblock to helping those people, but we can only help in the ways we know how - and that org is doing so much good!

Im not surprised. Do not trust youtube to be the host of your journalism. Put your work up in multiple places across the web. Push comes to shove, who do you think a massive corporation will side with? independant journalism, or status-quo preserving journalism? Those with the most power to change things have the most insentive to keep things just as they are.. tossed 7.50 at you. A meal if nothing else Keep it up. Try not to Die.

Once again, insane journalism. Kuddos!

Sorry to hear bro. I was just gonna set back after loong day and see the rest of the vegas video but sadly could not find it in yt. Supporting you guys in here was long time in my mind but this stuff made me finally do it. Maaaaddd love and respect for your work. Keep it up and cheers from Finland
Sam Hatch
I've dealt with false DMCA takedowns on my channel before. Have you all exhausted all of the reasonable non-legal means of getting this strike removed? There's a chance the clip was autodetected by YT's software and their legal team issued a strike without vetting if it was fair use or not. Reaching out to the responsible party has resolved most of my strikes in the past. Hope you all can get the strike removed <3
guest.raptor
thats ridiculous. saw it get taken down in real time as i was leaving a comment. your work is great bro keep it up
Yanick J. Steinbeck
Dude please connect with more experienced/professional youtubers to help you sort stuff like this out - there are strategies for how to dea{ with things like this and you are a big boy know, time to learn

That’s weak af! Fuck Fox. We appreciate all your hard work.

If you are stressed over $5, you really shouldn't be subbing to any patreons. All of the other videos you had access to, and you can now watch this full video of what you are looking for, so services have been rendered. Filing a chargeback would be in bad faith.

Fuck Fox News
Vince
imagine being a cuck over 5 bucks
Erik Peterson
Good point, but I think he can still monetize once the strike gets reversed? Main issue is that it takes forever to get movement. He'd want to re-upload at that point too so... Yeah. Might be too much of a pain in the ass. Sorry Andrew!
Mr. Magoo
JJ HoriYuko
At that point the adrev is dead, proven by many channels that a strike pretty much kills the video.
George Howell
Just subbed here because of this. You and your team are doing incredible work. Love u x
Nicholas Zimmerman
There has to be some other options
Ian Karanja
I'm not sure he can monetize there but I could be wrong
Thomas
fuck fox man. gonna buy some merch to help out. maybe try posting it on X!
Nicholas Zimmerman
Post it to X?
Gavin
Perhaps Ethan Klein's lawyer can assist with the claim?
Erik Peterson
I definitely recommend submitting a counter. They have to review it again, and if they think it's still a valid claim, you can submit the counter again at which point they would have to take legal action, something I doubt they would actually follow through with.

It really is a great video and I appreciate you intentionally helping the folks as well as raising awareness. Keep it up!
skellymoe yo
Of course it's Fox, they would rather hype up "mole people" themselves. Scumbags lol
Payton Santillanes
Truly Un-American what happened to the YouTube upload. I bet that newsroom is struggling and with all of the backlash that's coming that dinky lil station is fucked.
Wet Meat
fuck fox so much man. so indicative of modern media that things like this get intentionally covered up and erased.
Wylcey Keep
Fuck Fox and fuck YouTube they don't validate anything and just strike first, ask questions never. Y'all gotta find a way to get this back out there maybe if it means removing the external footage, the stories you guys captured is too important
Mr. Beef
Fight the claim!!! things will look up. CHANNEL 5 NEVER DIES
Benjamin Rowell
Is it cuz you're both channel 5?
James Moore
The fucking GOAT
Todd Troxell
fuck man...im so sorry. am [also working on building a new platform as my dayjob rn- we need something better]
Nicos Ledakis
This is so messed up!! Consider getting a lawyer or at least reaching out to YouTube directly… you can definitely get that copyright strike removed and hopefully get the video back up 🤞
Long Huynh
Keep going Andrew!
Riley Allen
I subscribed to patron bc of that video 😁
Nathan MacDonald
Some youtubers have lots of success fighting these kinds of claims. Consider reaching out to YMS! He's a fan of yours and has been through the ringer a few times on this issue and loves helping people fight it.
Gretchen Hoff
So insane for them to do that, especially when there was zero negativity towards their clips. Adding on to others’ sentiment, I hope this gets you tons of new Patrons!!
Hayley van Eykeren
fuck fox
Jimmy
Man I hope this brings a load of new people over here. Because long-term it would be great if you were 100% crowd funded. Maybe not now, but you know YouTube is gonna pull some shit eventually anyway, right? May as well begin the shift.
Alexander Abbas
YouTube really cant get their shit together somehow. The movie is really great, hope you can get it back up since I feel like lots of people would learn alot from it
GhostxxTurd
Waaaaack. Hope you get that shit removed.
Shane Webster
Dang, I got the watch in before they took it down. YT be really strict about and quick to take down based on any accusation, wether or not it's warranted and super lax about fixing the claims they take down without cause
S M
I'm so hot for you rn
André
Props for removing the accountability comment
Daniel
Incredible work, dude. With all the bullshit sensationalism from all media outlets, your guys' pieces give me a lot of hope for journalism and actually using a platform to make differences in people's lives. Also fuck fox 5, hater ass foos.
Bee Parker
As a nurse who works with the Vegas homeless population every day, I thank you for your hard work to expose this. Our homeless community deserves better. The way this city treats them is devoid of all humanity.
Zal
Thank you for making this. Excellent video.
Garrett Cady

Youre a G, Andrew. Just keep swimming. Hopefully we can collaborate on a kelp restoration piece in the future.

hopefully its resolved this whole homeless/addiction series has been incredible and needs to be viewed by all voting age americans
Rory
Excited to see the Kia Boyz piece. Keep up the good work. Strikes are part of the game, don’t let it get you too down. You’ve been way worse off in the past, keep moving forward.
Kaylee Rose
Fuck fox news
James I got Covid toes but I'm still a cute kid with a good piece Ruddick
Can't agree more with others, they're afraid of what a real reporter can do. Keep it up boys and don't let this discourage you from evolving your content, I like the direction it's going. We need more awareness on how to actually make a change, cameras off.
[loud shitposting]
fox news some bastards man, hope you get whoever needs to get involved to set that shit straight
demlet
Fox ENTERTAINMENT is a fascist right wing propaganda organization.
Chris Novak
FOX is just mad that Andrew is a real reporter and not just broadcasting fake bullshit like they do.
