Exposing The Motive Behind Media Smears Of Youtube (A Warning To All Youtubers) Recently the Mainstream Media as well as many other digital outlets ran smears against youtubers. On Wikipedia one person even highlighted a smear campaign against Philip Defranco after he was included in the Times hit piece. The motive for the smear may have just been revealed in another story by the New York Times who published a quote from an organization representing them stating that they deserved a piece of Google's profits off of news search. You read that right. NYT Ran a story in which they claimed they deserve a piece of Google's revenue. If that doesn't make it clear as to why they ran this hit job then I don't know what else will.  We are in an unprecedented political era with the rise of the far left, social justice activists in media, and the election of Trump. News outlets are spiraling out of control and losing money left and right which brings about an unhinged desperation. Drama and controversy generates views and clicks while also serving to harm political and economic rivals. Carlos Maza and Steven Crowder was just one more straw on the camels back. It triggered a wave of censorship on apolitical youtubers. Even channels that make hippie music for meditation got hit by the wave. You may be an entertainment or history Youtuber but make no mistake, you will be dragged into the next great youtube war same as anyone. They did it to pewdiepie, they will do it to you. The Youtube Vs Mainstream media war won't be the first but it will be bad news for many smaller channels on youtube who can't take the heat.
