Correct answer: "If you don’t have permission, it shouldn't be used."
Brief explanation: you generally need the copyright owner’s permission (or a license) to copy, distribute, or display their work. Being on a news channel or on the Internet, or uploaded to YouTube, does not automatically waive copyright. Limited exceptions (public domain, Creative Commons licenses, or narrow "fair use"/fair dealing rules) apply, but those are specific and case‑by‑case. When in doubt, get permission or use clearly licensed/public‑domain material.
