> Also, NBC has exclusive streaming rights so I’ve watched feeds where the cameraman was interrupted by Parade employees and forced to stop.
NBC does not own exclusive rights to stream an event that occurs on public streets. Americans have a constitutional right to film things in plain view of public spaces. Anyone on public sidewalks along along the route can film and stream it to their heart’s content. The only thing NBC can control is filming occurring in their private ticketed stage area at the ending point.

Yeah but they're not talking about who has the right to do what, they're talking about who has the access and equipment to film streams with good quality audio.
