YouTube suspends Sky News Australia
-
YouTube has suspended Sky News Australia for C-19 videos that were "factual" when they were originally posted.
Now that the "facts" have changed, YouTube has decided that they spread misinformation.
Not surprisingly, liberal media isn't facing the same problems.

You need to go to Sky News Australia to get the truth about what's going on in the US. That is how much you cannot trust the US mainstream media. Even sometimes Fox News. Except for Tucker Carlson, he's a good guy

Don't you mean to say:
"You need to go to Sky News Australia to get the right spin on what's going on in the US...."
I mean, come on... "Fox News, except for Tucker Carlson..." really???
If there is only 1 reporter in all of the US media who is "getting it right", maybe your version of "what is right" is skewed?
Just a thought...

Let's not forget that it was your beloved liberal media that played up 6 Jan, while downplaying everything BLM and Antifa do. They also ignored that Obama worships the terrorist Bill Ayres. Obama even admits this.
It's your beloved liberal media that runs with the anti-white narrative, by only showing black "victims", while ignoring white victims.
Your beloved media are always screeching about white supremacy and white gunning down blacks in the streets. It's funny how DOJ stats show that whites are victimized by blacks 11 times more than the reverse.
BTW, if you don't watch Tucker, you have nothing to say about him. You don't like him because he proved, without a doubt, that your beloved liberals lied to the people over many topics, including Russian collusion. In the media, they said they had absolute proof of Russian collusion, but in Shifty Schiff's secret hears (now mostly declassified) they said the complete opposite. Unlike your beloved liberal media, Tuck showed the stuff in their own words, rather than, as your beloved liberal media does, make shit up claiming secret sources.

Thanks, as always, for the gift of your thoughts-are-my-thoughts... but...
I am not the liberal you are looking for...
I don't love the liberal media - but I also don't worship the conservative media. I really don't need other people to interpret facts for me... I literally have 2 master's degrees from top universities in the US, and also quite literally started my career as a "rocket scientist"... so I think I can figure much of this crap out without the help of news "pundits" - on either end of the spectrum.
I also don't answer for media outlets I don't (or, at least, seldom) watch.
If you're trying to say "liberal politicians and pundits lie, but conservative ones tell the truth", then you're not just a fool, you're a damned fool.
I'm not aware of ANY US-based media outlet that is "centrist" (that is, doesn't lean - to some degree or other - left or right).... to get an "unbiased" view, I often (as I've said here before) consult media outlets from other countries: where they don't "have a dog in the fight"... they're not always right (correct), but they don't spin the shit out of everything else, either.
I agree that liberal media sometimes makes shit up (or so it seems to me) and/or has shaky sources.. but how is that worse than the Trump/Fox merry-go-round? (Trump tells Fox an obvious lie - like his inauguration in 2017 was the largest in history! - which Fox reports (citing the President of the US as a source)... then Trump "backs up" his story by saying something akin to "I don't know, but it was reported on Fox, so it must be true!"
They're all slimy bastards out for making political points one way or another. It used to be by "spin" - but now they don't even bother - they just lie!

You do love liberal media. That is how you "know" much about QAnon compared to the rest of us. You also routinely post liberal sites as sources.
The national broadcasters (ABC, BBC, CBC, etc) are all liberal outlets. Because you are so liberal, you don't think it. Regardless of their political stance, everyone in the UK knows there is a fight over the BBC being very liberal. Hell, CBBC aka Children's BBC, teaches kids all the "progressive" crap, like Critical Race Theory and whatnot.
You liberals don't like my Epoch News, but you clowns love you some BBC.
The BBC|'s Question Time is always rigged. They have only 1 conservative and the rest including the host are all liberals. This was extremely clear during Brexit.

Any news outlet to the left of Newsmax is a "liberal" source to you...
Your perspective is so stilted as to have no perspective at all.There is no grey in your world, is there? No outlet could be conservative, but not as conservative as Tucker Carlson... no, if they're not 100% with you on every syllable, they're "liberal"...
Do you wear the same toupee as Trump (your lord and Savior)?
-
I really haven't watched NewsMax.
LOL, you are such a clown. You are the one that said that I could only be a conservative if I supported Romney, McCain, Liz Cheney, etc, etc. So, in your view, conservatives are warhawk scumbags.
Let's not forget, Trump has not violated the US constitution in less than 7 months, like you guy, Honest Joe. He's even done it after a SCOTUS ruling against him.
You didn't like Trump because he bragged, but you love liar Joe because he lies. Can you tell us a job Honest Joe has not claimed to have done?

Oh, you DO love to substitute your own words for others', don't you.
Lots of Conservatives weren't happy with Romney, McCain, Cheney (either one), and so on... but Republicans supported them (at least Romney & McCain at the Presidential level) - or at least voted for them - because they were the candidate of the Party... the same way many people came 'round to supporting Trump in 2016.
Conservatism is a belief system, not a political party. Trump is not actually a Conservative in a lot of ways (tho he is in some other ways)...
To be clear:
I didn't say you weren't a Conservative, I said you weren't a Republican before Trump! You've spent so much of your energy blindly supporting all things Trump, you've shared precious little of your own political philosophy... so I wouldn't dream of attaching a label to you in that regard...
So:
- Are you a Conservative now? maybe - you claim to be & you certainly stand behind Trump!
- Were you a Conservative pre-2016? maybe - not enough data, but I wouldn't be surprised by that being a solid no...
- Are you a Republican now? I don't think so... I think you're a Trumpite: and if he created a Trump Political Party as a replacement for the Republican Party, you'd go with him without hesitation. (I believe you follow the man, not the Party or the Philosophy)
- Were you a Republican pre-2016? You have made it clear that the answer is a solid NO.
-
Ah, we have to vote for the Republican Presidential candidate, unless it's Orange Man Bad.
Typical liberal mental gymnastics, you got there.

ROFL - I have voted for exactly ONE Democrat in over 40 years:
- Against Trump
I voted for Bush/Quayle in 88 and 92 (even though Dan Quayle never saw a foot too big for his mouth!)
I voted for Dole/Kemp in 96 (with great pride! Dole was a great citizen & patriot!)
I voted for Bush/Cheney in 00 & 04 (even though Dick Cheney was scary as a VP!)
I voted for McCain/Palin in 08 (even though Sarah Palin was a laughing-stock candidate for VP)
I voted for Romney/Ryan in 12 (even though I would have preferred the ticket of Ryan/Romney!)
I voted for Trump/Pence in 16 - because who could possibly vote for another Clinton!But I couldn't overlook Trumpism in 2020 - It was just a bridge-too-far for me!
So if that makes me a liberal - in the mind of a Fascist, Nazi, Trumpite? Sure!
-
And yet, you have not seen a liberal policy that you won't defend.
You said that a Republican always votes for the Republican candidates, regardless. Then you proved that you aren't a Republican because you voted for Honest Joe, not the Republican candidate.
Being a liberal, I know you are too thick to get it.

I've never said you had to have a 100% Republican voting record to be a Republican... but I do think that if you're over 30 and the FIRST - nay, the ONLY - Republican Presidential Candidate you've ever voted for is Trump, then you're not a Republican, you're a Trumpite.
Those aren't mutually exclusive terms - many Republicans support Trump, but not all Trump supporters are actually Republicans.
Look, my older brother is a Trumpite - in part because he's an Anarchist (believes that ALL kinds of Government are inherently corrupt and bad.) He's not a Republican - and doesn't claim to be - but he still supports Trump (and also believes The Big Lie)... (you can't choose your family!)
I will also add: my brother also believes Trump is corrupt - he just appreciates that he's so open about it! But more importantly, he loves the chaos Trump caused (still causes?)
-
Trump is not the first Repub that I voted for. Sorry to burst your fake Repub bubble.
I voted for Repubs if they weren't homophobes. I never voted for a homophobe. I voted for Repubs as my US Rep.
Just because I don't like scumbag warhawks, doesn't make me a liberal. Hell, you and Peolsi are warhawks. Maybe you should start the Warhawks Swampies political party and see how many from both parties join.
Does your brother drink the DNC Koolaide, like you, that Honest Joe is the "good" guy?
-
I have noticed that our resident fake conservative has derailed this conversation in order to protect his beloved "big tech" from being criticized for being politically biased.
The topic, he doesn't want us talking about, is that YouTube suspended Sky News Australia for posting factual news, at the time of posting, but has now changed according to the WHO, CDC, and whatnot.
YouTube has not done this with liberal outlets that posted the same stuff.
So, why is SNA guilty of spreading false information, the same information that liberal outlets posted at the time, but the liberal outlets are not equally guilty?
SNA posted the "correct" info as the "facts" changed, just like liberal media outlets.
Typical liberal hypocrisy.

As a Fascist, Nazi, Trumpite, you should know by now that I am not the straw-man you're looking for...
I know this will be a shock to our outside readers, but to make sure it is clear:
I, personally, have no role in the decision-making in Google-owned YouTube
With that out of the way, let's look at the facts:
- Sky News Australia was not banned from YouTube. What really happened is that one channel of the network was suspended from YouTube for one week for claiming that COVID-19 in Australia "was not serious" and that "lockdowns have not worked."
NOTE: It's hard to find reliable, factual sources for the exact content of the video(s) that triggered the action (called a "strike" by YouTube - it takes 3 strikes in a 90-day period to get you actually banned!)
This would be the equivalent of YouTube temporarily blocking a YouTube re-broadcast of Tucker Carlson (sorry, I'm just picking on him because I know it will inflame @raphjd LOL) for a week.
Sky News Australia is a cable news channel (owned by the same parent company as Fox News in the US, and closely affiliated with the British Sky News network - all Murdoch-family owned outlets).
Losing access to YouTube is far from "canceling" the channel... they still have a small handful of cable-tv (and because things are different in Australia) over-the-air viewers... (he said sarcastically)...
IMHO, YouTube is treating this as a public-health issue, not a free-speech or political one. (Akin to the traditional: yelling FIRE in a crowded theater is illegal because of the extreme danger to public health, not because of a desire to stifle speech about rapid, incandescent, oxidation.)
What's more, by treating Sky News Australia the same as the guy in his garage claiming that "the vaccines are re-programming your DNA so that the deep-state can read your thoughts" - is far less hypocritical than ignoring it - because it's a large news outlet - would have been.

OH! So, you can choose to vote non-Republican and still consider yourself a Republican, but if I choose to vote non-Trump, I can no longer be a Republican...
As long as I understand the rules.
As a Fascist, NAZI, Trumpite - I should have expected nothing less.
Aside: Quick question: in the 80's, 90's and 2000's, the Dems all claimed we (Republicans) were the warhawks (or worse, war-mongers!)... now it's our turn? Your warhawk claims against non-Trumpites are historically and factually ignorant.
Finally, as I made clear in my earlier post: my brother is an anarchist. But to clarify for you even more: if Biden was "creating havoc and chaos" and making all the "corrupt politicians pull their hair out", then my brother would be for him. Actually, he (my brother) was quite disappointed in Trump: he thought he'd "sold out" in the end... that Trump had "started being just another corrupt politician" by the end of the 2020 campaign. He (my brother) chose not to vote in 2020 (like he used to do, before 2016). Who knows how many others like him there are...

You are a liberal because you worship liberal policies.
As always, you are high as hell on Pelosi's panty fumes.

And you are a fascist, nazi trumpite because you think He is all-but-infallible, should rule with absolute authority, and others who disagree should be "canceled" (even jailed!)....

Umm, you are the liberal, and we can see that you guys are the fascists.
Hell, even your guy, Honest Joe admitted that he's an authoritarian dictator.
I'll accept being called a Trumpite because there is nothing wrong with that.
