Fox News Detroit Likes The Legend of Zelda?

There was quite a bit of other licensed music in that clip as well. All the music clips were short so they are probably trying to use it all under fair use.
It's also possible they bought the track in a large package. I don't see why Nintendo wouldn't want to license out a few of their more popular tracks.

It's because FOX News sees Hyrule as the perfect world: Completely controlled by a maguffin leader who gets bailed out by some whimsical guy with a sword.
Just substitute "maguffin leader" with "right-wing president," "bailed out" with "dick sucked" and "some whimsical guy with a sword" with "a biased, pro-right-wing news channel."
MSNBC: Reliable.
CNN: Extremely reliable.
FOX News: Laughable.

Are you trying to hide the fact that you have the LoZ music set to automatically play when you enter your house and that you have clay pots with money inside that you smash?Thunderhorse said:
This was hilarious, thanks for sharing the clip. Normally, I wouldn't even be aware of this because FOX News is a pile of zuchini poo.
It's for real. It's on their website - link is in the article.Erana said:
It's very unlikely to fall under fair use. Fox News is a corporate for-profit production, and it's not using the audio for commentary/educational purposes related to the subject/origin. Without a good reason why it's the copyrighted Zelda music (over something else, or something licensed) it would be pretty much impossible to argue fair use.Baby Tea said:
Fair use, as it is currently defined, has a fairly narrow scope.
A lot of people like Fox, it ultimatly comes down to a Right Wing vs. Left Wing perspective and the Left Wing is more vocal.
Though I will say Fox is still pretty left wing, it's just they show more of the other side before oftentimes ending with the same conclusion as all the other News Networks. Some don't care for the balance.
As most people paying attention know, I'm far more to the right than the left, and I like video games, and think Zelda is cool, so why does this surprise anyone?
Truthfully I think some people need to realize that the left wing isn't as huge a majority as a lot would like to think, and despite some of the propaganda and stereotypes right wingers are not all uneducated redneck morons going blind from moonshine while shooting Varmits from their porch. >

SHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. You'll give me away, and I still have to sabotage the Futurama relaunch by the end of the week.
This isn't "fox news". Or at least not the one people know and hate\love.
This is local news. Fox news channel "2". Completely different. If you give international fox news credit for anything, their news reports look much more professional than that. And something like that would never make it to national news.
Someone might want to correct that in the article. As is it's kinda misleading.

Also, since it's a journalistic publication it doesn't qualify for the awesome "parody and satirical use" loophole.Virgil said:
You know, I thought this was going to be some super-obscure tune that only die-hard Zelda fans would recognize, but then I watched it. Um...yeah, I just have absolutely no idea what to say about it.
