Hey all, a Dragons Den (Shark Tank) clip of mine recently just got posted online by the Network's Youtube Channel and let's just say I got torn a new one by the Dragons.
Based on my estimate, it's going to rack up 200K people watching it.
It's going to be online forever, unless I try to ask them to remove the clip.
I'm not operating the business I pitched anymore, because the clip was recorded YEARS ago.
But my current business may be affected.
1) How do I bounce back from bad PR like this? I feel horrible, depressed, and feel like my reputation is over forever via a simple google search.
2) Is there any chance that TV Networks (Who post the individual clips online) would be willing to take down the content? Could I threaten a lawsuit if possible? Or could I pay them off? Etc. It's a roughly 15 min clip of me in the Dragons Den.
3) Is 200K people watching the clip as bad as I'm making it out to be?
Really in a dark place right now and appreciate if you can help.
EDIT: I put Shark Tank in the title instead of Dragons Den, so more US people will know what I'm talking about (They're both the same type of show)
The worst is knowing my friends/family will find out about it and it will go viral in that "circle".
