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.

“Yeah, Google owns Youtube.”
And the CEO of Google sleeps with Obama.
Would love to see Sharyl go to Vimeo, OANN and RightSide News.
Total control of the internet is the dream of every Left Winger. It’s bad enough right now without government involvement. Wait until your wish is granted in the form of the Department of Total Freedom of Internet Speech. Remember, The EPA was Nixon’s idea.
I was wrong about her Twitter account being suspended. It was someone else with a similar name.
you tube is google
True, so it’s not as we couldn’t already know that they would do it, and if they’d cooperate with the commie Chinese government, they would certainly cooperate with the leftist western governments, they’re practically a propaganda arm for them as it is.
Waco, Randy Weaver, and Elian Gonzales were some years ago, the US government has not gotten less power-mad since then, it’s gotten worse.
Youtube has Standards? Well, that explains all the 9/11 Truther nonsense that infests it.
I don’t get it. I watched the video and there is nothing remotely controversial in it. It was actually kind of boring.
They pulled most confederate flag merchandise back in June. There were several stories about this. But you're right. They're selling a lot of it again. I can't seem to find any official statement from Amazon rescinding their ban on Confederate flags. It must've happened quietly.
Community Guidelines?
You see some of the stuff on the BoobTube lately?
Come on, YuBoobs..
There has to be more to the story. This stuff is pretty mild compared to a lot of YouTube videos out there. YouTube has actually been very good about refraining from censorship, pretty much removing only those videos that violate copyrights, prohibitions on porn, excessively violent content, or advocate or instruct blatantly illegal activity. And they've left their comments sections almost completely unmoderated.
I wonder if Attkisson got flag-bombed? YouTube employs a small army in the Philippines who do nothing but comb through videos, removing those that violate YouTube's TOS. However, I wonder if they have software in place that automatically removes videos after receiving a certain number of flags?
Do the Obamas spam Youtube just like they have the span Twitter “followers”?
Youtube is without excuse on this, though, because Attkisson appealed it and Youtube said they looked and her videos violate the “community standards”. I’d like to know what “standards” those are.
Youtube, tell us what kind of “standards” you have that forbid factual reporting. How do you twist words to try to justify that?
How do we contact Youtube to raise holy hell?
1. I agree.
2. I wish I could redo everything I’ve written that didn’t come out as I wanted:)
This will probably end up being reversed, just a tactic to throw a little sand in the gears and make Sheryl waste time and energy.
That would be great!
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.

Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.Â
George Orwell, 1984
you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it.Â

Big Brother is Watching You.Â
George Orwell, 1984
Just change the words Big Brother to U-Tube, Google, Facebook, Main Stream Media, NSC, Justice Department, etc.
Then what was their stand about pulling the Confederate Flag? Support for the phony Nikki Haley when she raged against the flag?
They wanted to send a message to the masses but did not want to lose out on profits?
It’s censorship if the government forces it.
It’s cute how you think that there is a difference between Google and this current corrupt government.
