“so it can never be published?”

Not legally, no. But that true of the video you see of it already, the TV station has the copyright to it. Same with prob 90% of stuff on youtube if you were to enforce copyright law without mercy. (Very few places do, tho)

“Andy Parker has run into a consistent hurdle: He doesn’t own copyright of the footage”

I think the article mentioned the tv station has worked out some kind of deal with him on that. At any rate, who can do what is something likely the courts will have to sort out.

I can understand the reasoning by her dad on this account, it is disturbing for a parent esp to see that - but it can be crazy what you’re not supposed to show without permission:
