FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NBC's Gay Adult DVD Copyright Violation on Late Night with Conan O'Brien

JULY 23, 2007 - SAN FRANCISCO - Here's an interesting twist on the new public acceptance of porn.

We here at CyberBears, LLC were recently made aware that an
establishing scene from one of our copyrighted adult DVD titles was
used this past week on the Conan O'Brien show. We had not been
informed of this use, or asked for permission to use the clip, so we
investigated further.

It appears that, during an interview broadcast on the July 18, 2007
episode of Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Adam Sandler introduced a
clip of two men sharing an apple as a scene from his new movie. It
was actually a clip of two of our performers, Joe Falconi and Ali,
from a copyrighted adult video titled “Feed the Bears,” directed by
Ken Slater, and released in 2006 by CyberBears, LLC.

All of our DVD's clearly indicate that they are only licensed and
sold for in-home viewing by consenting adults. The notion of
broadcasting a portion of one of our adult movies over open network
television violates the spirit of the legal and ethical guidelines
our company follows to shield our content from inappropriate viewers.

Of course, we are also concerned about protecting our copyrighted
materials. We were surprised that neither the performers, the
director,nor the company were credited.

We do understand very well the legal notion of fair use as it applies
to copyrighted material used for reporting, satire, and public
interest media. We believe that NBC's inappropriate use of clearly
labeled adult content in violation of the stated terms, their
misrepresentation of the content presented, and their failure to
credit the actual source, all exceeded their rights.
