This article was on the guardian sport section and it's about the premier league goals highlights being showed on social media. Over the last year or so people have been posting goal highlights straight after the goal has been scored which isn't going down well with- BT and Sky as they invest heavily for the rights. This is breaching the copyright rule which is illegal. In this article it also states that the premier league are trying to tackle this online copyright issue. Also a threat to the premier league as commercial partners may pay less as content is being revealed online.
- Footballvines has over 500k followers on twitter
- Premier league rights costed sky and BT 3BN
- Over 9199 complaints on twitter
- Premier League have nothing to do with the vines
I believe that the premier league should continue to allow supporters of their teams to see the goals as there is no access to the 3PM kick offs as partners don't broadcast live. Also this is online and it will be very hard to tackle this issue as people will continue to post the goals.
