A First Dive into Phoenix Satellite Television (Phoenix TV of Hong Kong) and Documented Mass Reproduction of
Copyrighted Aerial and Ground Footage Created and Solely Owned by Miroslaw Wawak / One Man Wolf Pack

🎤️ Fu Xiaotian's Confirmed Damascus Access

Fu Xiaotian, presented by Phoenix TV at the time as one of its anchors on the network’s own ↗️English-language presenters page — secured rare access during Syria's civil war.

The ↗️SANA “transcript” details her 33-question interview with President Bashar al-Assad, where he stated: “from the very first day, we were determined to fight terrorism. We never had any other position, we want to fight terrorism and defend our people.”

Phoenix TV's February 1, 2016 ↗️ifeng article (title: “悬停的多米诺骨牌——大马士革纪行”) documents their team’s entry into Syria and on-site reporting in a war-affected environment:

“我们到达大马士革的时候已经是黑夜了，但进入叙利亚境内时就发现这个国家与其说是危险，不如说是荒凉。一进入边境线，就发现一排排的路灯，但这些路灯都不亮，说明基建的破坏还是挺严重的。”

They reported from Damascus University hospitals and interviewed students who affirmed:

“我们很赞成阿萨德再当选叙利亚总统，我们非常支持他” (“We strongly support Assad's re-election as President of Syria”).

🫆 Unauthorized Reproductions Despite On-Site Capabilities

Despite this extensive access, Phoenix TV incorporated our Damascus and/or Omayyad Mosque footage across three distinct identified Syria productions:

🟥 “專訪敘利亞大使一家 暢談十年在華歲月《風雲對話》20220310【下載鳳凰秀App，發現更多精彩】”,
🟥 “獨家專訪｜敘利亞大使發出警告：停止政權顛覆的把戲！《風雲對話》20220303【下載鳳凰秀App，發現更多精彩】”,
🟥 “《風雲對話》敍利亞總統解釋“伊斯蘭國”的資金來源途徑 20210923【下載鳳凰秀App，發現更多精彩】”.

💥️ This occurred not just on Phoenix TV's YouTube presence, but partly also through Phoenix Satellite Television's interconnected platforms (ifeng.com, fengshows.com), confirming coordinated corporate use.

👉 Our 2019 Syria visit required significant investment — visa, guided tours/security, accommodation, transport — amid ongoing instability, making our footage uniquely valuable.

📣 Propaganda Narrative Amplified by Our Footage

Phoenix TV’s coverage of the Syrian conflict has at times echoed official Syrian government perspectives on the war, including narratives that assign significant responsibility to foreign states and highlight Russian military support in a favorable light. Years later, our Damascus footage was used in Syria-related programming to visually reinforce and elevate narratives across Phoenix TV’s omni-media distribution network, ↗️reaching extensive amounts of viewers and aligning with what has been widely described as the ↗️broadcaster’s Chinese (CCP) state-friendly editorial positioning.

⚠️ Phoenix TV – A Clear Disconnect Between Policy and Practice

Phoenix TV states on its website: “Company respects the intellectual property of others and asks that users of our Site do the same”:

However, Phoenix TV reproduced and broadcast our Syria/Damascus footage without authorization, despite maintaining its own on-site reporting capabilities and publicly acknowledging the extraordinary access challenges involved in reporting from the region — factors that underscore the unique value of our original footage that was reproduced.

This use occurred notwithstanding clear copyright notices and usage restrictions displayed on our YouTube channel, within the individual videos themselves, and on the One Man Wolf Pack business website.

👉 This Damascus case illustrates a broader, documented pattern in which high-value creator footage was reproduced without licensing, authorization or even crediting, raising serious questions about the gap between Phoenix TV’s published intellectual-property commitments and its operational practices.

⏭️ Coming Next: Additional Documented Instances

In follow-up posts, we will publish preserved evidence (URLs, timestamps, screenshots, and platform records) relating to:

🟥 Documented use of our U.S. Copyright Office-registered Taiwan footage in politically framed segments,
🟥 Additional unauthorized uses involving locations including Iran, Macau, China, Uruguay, Kenya — and others,
🟥 Indicators of concealment or misattribution (including instances consistent with logo/credit removal),
🟥 Statements made by Phoenix TV in DMCA counter-notifications and related correspondence,
🟥 Phoenix TV’s distribution status in Taiwan (as publicly reported since 2022),
🟥 A multi-year timeline of repeated unauthorized uses,
🟥 Mass deletions across Phoenix TV-affiliated YouTube channels following our DMCA enforcement,
🟥 Phoenix TV’s YouTube channel rebranding and the relevant YouTube policy implications.

⚖️ Exemplary Evidence: Phoenix TV repeatedly reproducing One Man Wolf Pack's footage

The following screenshots are provided as exemplary evidence documenting the unauthorized reproduction and publication by Phoenix TV of copyrighted audiovisual footage created and solely owned by One Man Wolf Pack / Miroslaw Wawak.

The materials shown depict footage recorded in Damascus, Syria, which was reproduced and disseminated by Phoenix Satellite Television (Phoenix TV), among others on its former verified YouTube channel “鳳凰衛視PhoenixTV” (see ↗️Social Blade). That channel was subsequently disabled by YouTube and, at the time of writing, remains unavailable, displaying the platform notice:

“This account has been terminated because we received multiple third-party claims of copyright infringement regarding material the user posted.”

The following screenshots are presented for the limited purpose of demonstrating factual use patterns, including:

🟥 the reproduction of the copyrighted footage without authorization or license,
🟥 the embedding of Phoenix TV’s corporate graphics, branding, or other overlays onto our footage,
🟥 and the absence of any visible credit, attribution, or acknowledgment of the original author and copyright holder.

These materials are not exhaustive and are shown solely to illustrate the nature and context of the documented reproductions:

⚖️ Our documentation continues.

🐾 As always, we continue to keep all correspondence public for accuracy, fairness, and accountability. More updates will follow.

👉 Summary of the Article

This article documents Phoenix Satellite Television’s repeated, unauthorized reproduction of copyrighted footage created and solely owned by Miroslaw Wawak / One Man Wolf Pack. Using preserved evidence, public records, and Phoenix TV’s own reporting, the article details how Damascus footage was incorporated into multiple Syria-related productions without license, credit, or authorization.

Despite Phoenix TV’s publicly documented on-site reporting in Syria in 2015 — including exclusive access secured by anchor Fu Xiaotian — the broadcaster relied on externally produced footage filmed under significant risk and expense. The article further shows how this material was used across interconnected Phoenix TV platforms and editorial outputs, amplifying specific political narratives while omitting attribution to the original creator.

By contrasting Phoenix TV’s published intellectual-property policies with its documented operational practices, this case study raises serious questions about licensing compliance, editorial accountability, and the treatment of independent creators. Additional documented instances across multiple countries and years are slated for publication as part of an ongoing evidentiary record.

Resumen en Español

Este artículo documenta la reproducción reiterada y no autorizada de material audiovisual protegido por derechos de autor, creado y propiedad exclusiva de Miroslaw Wawak / One Man Wolf Pack, por parte de Phoenix Satellite Television. A partir de pruebas preservadas, registros públicos y publicaciones del propio medio, se demuestra el uso de imágenes de Damasco en múltiples producciones relacionadas con Siria sin licencia, crédito ni autorización.

Pese a contar con reportajes presenciales documentados en Siria en 2015 — incluidos accesos exclusivos obtenidos por la presentadora Fu Xiaotian — Phoenix TV incorporó material externo producido bajo condiciones de alto riesgo y coste. El artículo expone además el uso coordinado de dicho material en varias plataformas del grupo, sin reconocimiento del autor original.

El análisis contrasta las políticas públicas de respeto a la propiedad intelectual de Phoenix TV con sus prácticas documentadas, planteando interrogantes relevantes sobre cumplimiento legal, responsabilidad editorial y trato a creadores independientes. Nuevos casos documentados serán publicados próximamente.

Zusammenfassung auf Deutsch

Dieser Artikel dokumentiert die wiederholte, nicht autorisierte Nutzung urheberrechtlich geschützten Bildmaterials, das ausschließlich von Miroslaw Wawak / One Man Wolf Pack erstellt wurde, durch Phoenix Satellite Television. Anhand gesicherter Beweise, öffentlicher Quellen und eigener Veröffentlichungen des Senders wird gezeigt, dass Aufnahmen aus Damaskus in mehreren Syrien-Produktionen ohne Lizenz oder Quellenangabe verwendet wurden.

Obwohl Phoenix TV nachweislich 2015 eigene Vor-Ort-Berichterstattung in Syrien betrieb — einschließlich exklusiven Zugangs durch Moderatorin Fu Xiaotian — griff der Sender auf extern produziertes Material zurück, das unter erheblichem Aufwand und Risiko entstand. Die Verbreitung erfolgte koordiniert über mehrere Plattformen des Konzerns.

Der Beitrag stellt die veröffentlichten IP-Richtlinien von Phoenix TV den dokumentierten tatsächlichen Praktiken gegenüber und wirft zentrale Fragen zu Urheberrechtskonformität, redaktioneller Verantwortung und dem Umgang mit unabhängigen Urhebern auf. Weitere belegte Fälle werden folgen.

Ces contenus ont été diffusés de manière coordonnée sur plusieurs plateformes du groupe.

En confrontant les engagements publics de Phoenix TV en matière de propriété intellectuelle à ses pratiques documentées, l’article soulève des questions importantes sur la conformité juridique, la responsabilité éditoriale et le respect des créateurs indépendants. D’autres cas documentés seront publiés prochainement.

文章摘要 (繁體中文)

本文记录了凤凰卫视（Phoenix Satellite Television）对 Miroslaw Wawak / One Man Wolf Pack 独立创作并独家拥有的受版权保护影像的重复、未经授权复制使用情况。通过已保存的证据、公开记录以及凤凰卫视自身的报道，本文详细展示了大马士革影像如何被纳入多档涉叙利亚节目，却未获得许可、署名或授权。

尽管凤凰卫视在2015年公开记录了其在叙利亚的现场报道——包括主播傅晓田获得的独家采访权限——该广电机构仍依赖外部制作、在重大风险与成本下拍摄的影像素材。本文进一步展示了这些素材如何被用于凤凰卫视互联平台与编辑输出，放大特定政治叙事的同时省略了对原作者的署名。

通过对比凤凰卫视公布的知识产权政策与其记录在案的实际操作，本案例研究引发了对许可合规性、编辑问责制以及对独立创作者待遇的严重质疑。跨多个国家和多年的其他记录实例将作为持续证据记录的一部分陆续发布。

日本語での要約

本記事は、鳳凰衛視（Phoenix Satellite Television）が、ミロスラフ・ワワク／One Man Wolf Pack により制作され、単独で所有されている著作権保護映像を、長期間にわたり無断で複製・使用していた事例を記録したものである。保存された証拠、公的資料、および同社自身の報道内容に基づき、ダマスカス映像が複数のシリア関連番組で許諾なく使用されたことが示されている。

鳳凰衛視は2015年に現地取材を行い、司会者の傅晓田が独占的な取材機会を得ていたにもかかわらず、高いリスクと費用をかけて独立制作者が撮影した外部映像を利用していた。これらの映像は、同社の複数の配信プラットフォームを通じて展開された。

本記事は、鳳凰衛視が公表している知的財産方針と実際の運用との間に見られる乖離を指摘し、著作権遵守、編集責任、そして独立クリエイターへの配慮について重要な問題を提起している。今後、追加の記録事例が公開される予定である。

About the Author

Miroslaw Wawak is a world-traveling filmmaker, drone pilot, and founder of One Man Wolf Pack — also internationally known from the Netflix production “Crime Scene Berlin: Nightlife Killer” (↗️IMDb), where his story was featured as a survivor and main protagonist. Having explored and documented 222 countries, his original and unqiue aerial footage has been featured in international media, Hollywood trailers, and major global events.

Beyond his creative work, Miroslaw is a passionate advocate for creator rights, transparency, and social impact — regularly supporting community projects and defending his original work against unauthorized use worldwide. He’s taken legal action against everyone from international broadcasters (e.g. ESPN, TyC Sports) and tech giants (e.g. Facebook, YouTube) to national icons (e.g. Deutsche Welle, Globo, BAND/Radio Bandeirantes) — even religious institutions — when they violated his copyright.

Through exposing countless violations of his copyright and collaborating with top intellectual property attorneys around the globe — including landmark legal battles from Europe to the Americas and as far as Bermuda — Miroslaw Wawak has acquired an unmatched expertise in defending his rights and bringing every discovered infringement to justice.

🟥 His most recent victories in ↗️precedent-setting cases against the BAND network and ↗️Carolina Britto in Brazil as well as ↗️Rafael Delgado Garcia (Spain/Andorra) proved not only the financial strength but also the strategic determination and domination behind his enforcement efforts.
