NBC Universal to Web Sites: Pull Video clips

A Reuters newswire article by Andrew Wallenstein, via Yahoo! News, reports that:

NBC Universal is leaning on popular Web sites engaged in video sharing to remove hundreds of copyrighted video clips derived from its TV networks.

A spokeswoman for the conglomerate confirmed that video-laden sites like YouTube.com are complying with warnings issued this month by its legal department forbidding transmission of the clips, including the popular "Lazy Sunday" skit from NBC's "Saturday Night Live" that became a hit on the Internet.
