Media Outlets Escalate WAR On Youtubers, Smear Philip Defranco As Far Right
b'Media Outlets Escalate WAR On Youtubers, Smear Philip Defranco. The war on youtube has been dramatically escalating in the past few weeks with Philip DeFranco getting the latest hit. So far we have seen the #VoxAdpocalypse as the biggest force in taking down small and independent creators but we also saw CNET write a hit piece on gaming channels resulting in a loss of advertisers.Now the latest story insinuates that Phil Defranco is "far right" and was part of a path to being made radical. However the story is mostly nonsense and their subject claims only to be a conservative.Why then include Phil Defranco? In my opinion, so that far left and social justice activists can imply that Phil is a part of or associated with the far right. Even if it wasn\'t intended to escalate they already have implied that Phil is far right even though I\'m sure that the subject of the NYT story watched The Young Turks or other large Youtubers. For Vox\'s Carlos Maza with Steven Crowder it was easy, he said naughty words, but Phil is a rather neutral commentator so whether intentional or not this could lay seeds for future activists to make claims about Phil and his politics.The past few weeks should make it clear that there is an effort to destabilize youtube and target our channels and businesses.\\nSupport the show (http://timcast.com/donate)\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
