A friend of mine who goes to Oregon made this video for a class. Because the Oregon mascot (Donald Ducks) is in the video...Disney threatened them to take it down for violating the copyrighted likeness. Because it was so popular...may people have since downloaded it and reuploaded it. There was a story in the journal star about it the day of the Colorado game.

I don't get how Disney can claim copyright infringement since that appears to be the official school mascot. Are they going to go after the University also?

well the university likely has a licensing agreement with Disney in order to use the copyrighted likeness...

'Supwitchugirl' does not have such a license

But that is the official mascot is it not? Don't you have to get permission from the University to have him in the video?
