NOM and Perez Hilton In YouTube Pissing Match
Well, well, well, isn’t this interesting. The National Organization for Marriage is bristling at Perez Hilton’s request for YouTube to remove a NOM ad (above) which features footage of Hilton calling Miss California Carrie Prejean a “dumb bitch.” Hilton claimed that NOM had violated copyright laws by lifting “about three seconds of footage” from his video blog. NOM’s lawyers have appealed the video’s removal to the video sharing site.
It’s no surprise that NOM would fight to keep the video up—Perez Hilton is probably wrong here, as the clip is short enough to constitute fair use. The interesting part is the way NOM executive director Brian Brown has characterized Hilton’s request.
It seems like only yesterday that NOM was working exhaustively to remove YouTube copies of the leaked audition reels to its now-infamous anti-gay “Gathering Storm” ad. And yet, In an interview with Bloggasm, Brown painted Hilton not just as a copyright law novice, but as a coward.

Here’s what Prejean had to say:
