The person that wrote this article is being silly. YouTube is not journalism, its a public commons for discussion. People need to accept that some YouTube videos will have bogus info in them. Over time a viewer can learn what channels one can trust. Trying to be the arbiter of truth for everything discussed is a fool's errand and will lead to pissing off many of your users when you get it wrong.

My changes show what an astute and sensible comment yours is!

The problem we face is that our enemies on the Left don't see it that way at all.

They want to be the arbiters of truth on the Internet, the same way they did it in the traditional media, which has become a laughing stock for any thinking person who can see right through it.

But like liberals going from a blue state to a red state, or locusts going from one crop to the next, they are bent on consuming the Internet for their own statist uses.

My favorite was the one about Michelle Obama really being a man. Just the arguments back and forth were pure entertainment.
