No. Branding is about putting your mark on something to say its yours,
like
the cowboys did on the arses of their cows, so no one could steal it and
pass it off as theirs. And that is the real reason for the DOGs on BBC3.
The
tossers running it think competitors will steal their programmes,
retransmit
them and pass them of as their own. But the tossers fail to realise that
this only happens with Sport and News programms which are taken off air
by
their competitors and placed in their own News programes. DOGGING Films,
Drama, Comedy and Documentaries is completely unnecessary. These BASTARDS
need to get an education. They know NOTHING about broadcasting.


BOLLOCKS!

(Sorry, don't know where that came from.)

BBC3 know perfectly well that they can't be stolen and transmitted by
anyone
else. The legal ramifications of such copyright violations would be
enormous.

I which case there is no reason to DOG it, so clearly they don't know.

And the kind of pirates for whom copyright violation is no big
deal, would also consider a logo and branding, to be no big deal. Even
with
news and sports - you'll frequently see "Pictures from Spy Sports" or
whatever when BBC news includes footage of the Test Match or whatever.
For

Except when it's rebroadcast on European satellite stations, which have
become so ridiculous that they are now overlaying their own DOG over the DOG
of the European sports channel they pinch the highlights off off which has
pinked it from Sky or Minute TV or Chelsea TV and has placed its own DOG
over the DOG giving you the scores so you have no idea what the other team
that's playing is or what the scores are, and they don't even credit the
original source because its 3 or 4th generation footage, and completely
degenerated in most cases with two or three DOGs all lying on top of one
another.

them not to - they'll be sued to hell and back twice. If they're
reputable
broadcasters, they'll know that. If they're not, they won't care anyway.

Ah, but who in Europe has heard of ITV4 when some satellite channel has
stolen European Championship footage from it to use in their sports news and
then some other channel has pinched the pirated footage and reused it itself
as you can see from the 3 different DOG's on it, sometimes four if Sky News
pinched the ITV4 coverage originally, and ITV don't even have the rights to
the footage anyway in the country the pirated footage is shown so it would
be difficult for them to sue, but some other channel does which is bypassed.
That's what happens.
