Sharyl Attkisson, formerly an investigative reporter with CBS, recently launched Full Measure News. Those who have followed Attkisson on Twitter know that she has been relentless in her pursuit of stories that have been abandoned by the mainstream news, such as the Fast and Furious scandal and Benghazi.

Full Measure News was to be an independent outlet for investigative reporting, but tonight Attkisson is reporting that the entire Full Measure News account has been pulled by YouTube.

Liberals LOVE censoring, book burning, and silencing dissent to their views. They are communists after all.

Because Nazis must Nazi.

This is nothing but deliberate Censorship Nazi "Gleichshaltung" style.

Their position is, "If we don't agree with you, you don't have a right to be heard. "

Google is the most evil corporation in World History.

Censorship by definition can only be done by government.

“Censorship by definition can only be done by government.”

I would say that Google has such close ties to our government, that they are becoming one in the same.

ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, the NY Times and WashPo have got NOTHING on Silicon Valley when it comes to censoring the news.

My Millienal child, who relies on news feeds on her smart phone, knew absolutely NOTHING about the Planned Parenthood videos OR Hillary’s email problems until ol’ Dad, the AM talk radio throwback, TOLD her about them.

Do not use Google products for anything! For a video sharing service, use Vimeo.

And Google worships O. Google is a slave of, and tool of, O.

That which is damaging to their god must be silenced.

Kind of like ISIS, no?

This happens all the time. If enough people ‘flag’ a video or an account, YouTube automatically takes it down. That’s why, determined people, have multiple ‘mirror’ accounts and a separate webpage.

Some people have nothing better to do with their life.

Yes, when Google bought YouTube they cancelled all YouTube accounts that were not connected to a Google account.

So needless to say I no longer have a YouTube account. Lost all of my favorites and saved channels. But I will stick to my principles and not put a penny in the pockets of the Google Fascist.

If anyone post a YouTube video I have to really want to see that video to click on a YouTube link.

There must be video posting methods the Fascists don’t control?
