Journalists document public statements, press conferences, and social posts they are entitled to reference — with link-first downloads for editorial review.
This page explains how journalists use PasteGrab to save public video and audio they have rights to keep — with format presets, compliance notes, and links to guides and downloaders.
Newsroom reference workflow
Copy the public post or broadcast page URL, verify it plays in incognito, and preview metadata on PasteGrab before download. Record title, duration, and source URL in your story file.
Use 720p when filing from the field on cellular; Best quality when archiving for legal review.
Social and broadcast sources
X posts, Facebook Watch clips, Reddit threads, and Dailymotion news segments are common inputs when the content is public and newsworthy.
PasteGrab does not access private accounts, paywalled streams, or DRM-protected feeds.
Ethics and verification
Verify authenticity before publishing. Link-based downloads preserve source streams but do not replace editorial fact-checking.
Consult your newsroom counsel on fair use and platform terms.
