Full Version: Does Youtube have a conservative bias

For the past couple of months everytime I come across a youtube video of a liberal making a comment normally I come across a person who agrees with them but at the same time there is always a conservative who basically calls liberals an Epic Fail. That final nail on the head for me that made me buy into the fact that Youtube has a conservative bias was when I was watching Ed attack Hugh Hewitt for his Un-American attack on GM. The comments were not only derogatory of us liberals but they actually had thumb ups in these comments.

Finally I said to all of them on that clip:

you know judging by these comments made here and other liberal clips I see and agree with most of em, Youtube has a conservative bias and it's the type of bias that does not care about facts or even about people.

This is why you guys lost in 2008 because we got tired of you guys shoving fear and lies into our mouths and if you guys don't wake up and realize it you're gonna be heading off a cliff. But hey if you wanna head off that cliff HAVE AT IT HOSS.


what do you think?
NO U
I've actually noticed that too. I don't think it's Youtube, I reckon it's either 1) right wing organizations paying people to spread talking points on the internet (this is a known tactic of the right), or 2) right wingers are just more petty.

I don't know that it's a political bias as much as sensationalizing. The loudest mouths get the most play and right now the screeching weasels on the right (the pundits, the Teabaggers, etc.) are making the most noise. It's a video bin, and not something that ought to be held to the standards of a fact-checking organization.

It's the folks on youtube, not the site itself.

Youtube is owned by Google, and Google is anything BUT conservative.

No, YouTube is not conservative. It's some of the video posters, especially the Radio Equalizer, who trashes Ed on a regular basis based on BS.
