At the moment, all I can say about the dispute is that Levy has been in contact with Fox Televisions Stations' legal team in California and talks are ongoing.  Meanwhile, the clock is ticking for Fox to make a decision as to whether to sue us over the YouTube clips in question.  If they don't take legal action by late next week, YouTube should reinstate our account shortly thereafter.

We'll let you know if and when there are any further developments.
