Hyperbolic title to be sure but I think it's justified to point out Fuck Bloomberg.

I don't see as much potential malice in Bloomberg as the conspiracy theories are saying, just normal every day malice of their legal department seeing their footage being used and suing to get money out of it. The news industry is particularly cutthroat now, so paying top buck for video exclusives probably makes them think they can demand cuts from channels like Steve's. If it was pressure due to any one of the conspiracies being brought up, the opposition would be much more organized and not just coming from the legal department, and they wouldn't be giving him an out by just saying he can pay a licensing fee to resolve the dispute.
