    Since you’re looking down on YouTube as a source, here you go:

      Give up. You could post an article by a Pulitzer Prize Winner and it wouldn’t be good enough. Hell, I posted an English translation of a Chinese article about the arrest of a Chinese LGBT author and it wasn’t good enough.

        I would be interested in reading that. Can you link it to me?

      Ah yes, backing up the YouTube video with… A blog post? Basically a bunch of op-eds masquerading as a news source?

          Some folks are actively avoiding google products due to the WEI thing and the “turn off your ad blocker” thing.

            Which is fair, but we all know that’s not why the original person posted the dismissive comment they did.

        The ‘medium’ in this sense is mp4 (video w/sound). YouTube is a platform.

        Is all video news fallable?

        You do understand that’s like saying you look down on television as a medium, or magazines as a medium, correct?

          Television and magazines are far more general. Television as a medium could be compared to Web as a medium. YT could be compared to a specific TV channel.

            …Yeah, that falls apart when you consider YT is full of specific channels. That’s why I specifically compared it to TV. It’s far closer to cable than a single channel.

            This is an absurd argument to make.
