Apparently a BIG time lag between actual hits and counter turnover.

“I am a YouTube Partner. The views and subs stats stall all the time. No big deal. The counter display will catch up.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not as uncomplicated as merely stalled. The count on Monday night was just under 800,000. Posted the following on the Rush thread today.:

Either the YouTube counter is malfunctioning, OR they are suppressing the count.

Monday night when I watched it and emailed it out, the count was pushing 800,000.

Tuesday noon, when I posted to Rush if he had seen the video, the count was 295,089.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2875895/posts?page=31#31

Today (Wed) Drudge carried the YouTube link all morning under the mysterious headline (major, featured large-type headline) “’ECONOMIC SUICIDE PACT’...”

As of 11am this morning (Wed), the count was 517,412. Highly dubious. Hundreds of thousands of people have gone to that video this morning alone from the Drudge page.

As I type (2:30pm), the count now stands at 517,844-— still significantly under the view-count of nearly 800,000 that was registered on YouTube Monday night-—even though the video had been highlighted or embedded in

breitbart.com
hotair.com
pjmedia.com
realclearpolitics.com
facebook.com
And, Michelle Malkin’s website (not listed by YouTube)

Now, it has been mentioned by Rush, and the counter still has not moved one unit.

It has gone viral, but we will never know the true count.

Brilliant! I just “shared” it on facebook. Getting ready to be called all sorts of fun names. Oh well. ;^)

Thanks for posting!

“I have seen the view count “stalled” many times on You Boob.”

Yep, they need to freeze the number of views to create the false impression that the video is not having a big impact. This is typical tactic of the liberal playbook. The economic manipulators at BLS must be envious.

MEGA-viral?

Puh-leeze. What does that even mean? Does everyone remember that YouTube video of that father shooting his daughter's laptop? The one praised by conservatives and common-sense parents everywhere? That video has nearly 33 MILLION views...now THAT is something worthy of the term 'mega-viral'.

This video is one of the best of its kind, and SHOULD be seen by every American. Of course; unless it is broadcast during the halftime of the Super Bowl; that isn't going to happen. But we sure as hell can make an honest effort to spread this video around to as many people as possible. The 'dead laptop' video shows that you can reach MILLIONS on YouTube. Can Americans push this video up to 33 million viewers? Can we keep this in front of American viewers until Election Day?

Yes, we can. :-)

“As of 1510 CDT the count is still stuck at 517,844.”

Unchanged as of 6:11 EST. Frozen in time.

Jus’ sayin’; I have learned not to pay too much attention to the counters on YouTube. It is clear that a LOT of people are seeing this. I doubt anyone skips it because it “Only” has half a million views.

"If the Reps keep the House" Unfortunately they haven't done squat so far

Of course they have. Everything dies in the Senate.

What are they supposed to do about that?

I’d use their schools to teach one generation of Americans that their factories and their cars will cause a new ice age… …and I’d muster a straight face so I could teach the next generation that they’re causing global warming. When it’s cold out, I’d call it climate change, instead. I’d imply that America’s cities and factories could run on wind power and wishes. I’d teach children how to ignore the hypocrisy of condemning logging, mining, and farming…while having roofs over their heads, heat in their homes, and food on their tables. I would never teach children that the free market is the only force - in human history - to uplift the poor, establish the middle class, and create lasting prosperity. Instead, I’d demonize prosperity itself, so they will not miss…what they will never have.

Thank you, public schools...wake up, parents. Schools are NOT your friend...

I’d heard of this video for several days, and just finally watched it. Pretty good stuff.

It was higher than that earlier - it actually went backwards! How do we call Youtube and call them out on this? It’s obvious what’s going on here!

Yeah, I think I’m waking up. Daydreaming of how conservatives can use the twitter mob concept to shake things up. Protest designed to throw them just a little off balance...give them what the Spartans called the Phobos, the feeling all is not right, that they should double-lock their doors and check under the beds.

That’s when the enemy begins spending more energy than you. That’s the little victory you take home each day when you know the enemy hopelessly outnumbers you and you must dig in for the long haul like a conservative viet cong with the same endurance and singlemindedness.

When a conservative protester is arrested and they ask him for i.d. he should answer “liberty”. And when the King has decided on how to swat the fly, make him overextend himself, as in judo, and make sure he always lands on the wrong side of public opinion...the zeitgeist is there for the taking, if enough sleepers have awakened.

Ideas?

Right now I’m investigating this chemical that replicates skunk smell, but hundreds of times more concentrated. A few drops will clear a building and make it unusable for weeks, unless you ptofessionally clean it top to bottom. I’m trying to find a place I can buy some. In bulk.

Just wait when their trust funds are worthless on paper with no knowledge how to survive.

Don't worry about them. They'll know how to sell their bodies. They already have sold their souls!
