You can use parts of copyrighted content for certain kinds of videos including commentary. Google previously brought up that the newspapers can use robots.txt to prevent the scraping of there site. If you check the robots.txt of the major French newspapers, both allow Googlebot on the main content areas. The French news paper's both want to be listed on Google yet don't want Google to show previews/snippets. It looks like beggars can be choosers if they cry to the French government.
