Re: Music Rights and internal communication

[Bob Cole] "More to the point for documentaries, what about incidental music playing on a jukebox or radio, in the background of an interview? "

I recall directing live sporting events where the National Anthem is played. I always had to structure my break to cover most of the playing. Since we did not have rights to broadcast the theme, we could only show a small portion of it. Usually I came back from commercial with the last 15 sec left of the song.
