Bob Dylan's Publisher Blocks NYC Councilman's Viral Video
Update: 2025-11-06
Description
New York City Councilman Zohran Mamdanis viral campaign video, featuring Bob Dylans The Times They Are a-Changin, was removed from Twitter due to a copyright claim by Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG), which owns Dylans songwriting catalog. UMPG has a policy against licensing Dylans compositions for political projects, leading to the videos takedown. Despite this, the video remains accessible on other platforms, sparking discussions on copyright complexities in political campaigns.
