Redlasso is back, but with Fox’s blessing

Last year, Redlasso was sued for copyright infringement, but now one of the plaintiffs, Fox Television Stations, is signing a partnership with the company. Redlasso’s old business model was hosting television content — without permission — and allowing bloggers to clip-and-embed it. Now Redlasso is back, but asking for permission first. The company has inked a deal to record newscasts from Fox’s 27 stations and allow bloggers to create and embed clips as long as 10 minutes in length. “We look forward to developing similar relationships with other media companies seeking new value for their content,” says Redlasso CEO Al McGowan.
