What confuses me is how Carlos Mencia is able to claim copyright to the video? That's why it's being taken off youtube?!? I mean, youtube/google have no affiliations with that guy, so what gives?

It must not be very hard to prove 'ownership' of content on that site then.

I don't like either one of them, but after seen the video, I have to take Rogan's side on this. He's getting royally screwed here.

What does being affiliated with youtube/google have to do with copyrights?

Bad publicity for Mencia so I'm betting Comedy Central stuck their lawyers on Youtube.

Ummm quite easily... Carlos is IN the video and he can probably call something like, "I'm in that video in an 'act' and that wasn't placed there under my consent" or something along those lines.
