In this follow-up American Pravda video, New York Times Audience Strategy Editor Nicholas Dudich explains how he can (and has) manipulated news reach based on his own personal agenda. Dudich also reveals that thanks to inside-baseball connections in Silicon Valley, he can exploit social media to his advantage for the Times.
Youknowwhatthe newyorktimes.....
Trump needs to immediately suspend Press Credentials on all media outlets that are caught in Fake News. Reinstatement only after firing those involved and the equivalent of a Front Page, Above the Fold Apology.
I wonder what Russian émigrés in the United States who lived under Soviet rule think of the New York Times and comparing it to Pravda or Tass?
This is why, for several years, I have called them the American Soviet Media (ASM) rather than the MSM.
I know many Russian emigres, most of them Slavic Baptists, and some Apostolic Lutherans.
They are utterly APpALLED at what they are seing happen here!
My mother, who escaped Mussolini’s Italy, is appalled for the same reasons.
They’ve all seen it before, and they know how it ends.
Absolutely right. Since there’s no way in a free society to “ban” this kind of propaganda, the best option is to expose it to the light of air.
Now that we all know that YouTube manipulates their “news carousel” to favor videos from their “partners”, who among us is ever going to trust it again?
That’s why we all need to spread the word, forward and post these videos to inform more people about who their social media is manipulating them.
light of day, fresh air - sorry for the mixed metaphor ;-) But you get the point!
With smarmy twerps like Dudich staffing the media, it’s no wonder they are such a despicable bunch of propagandists/useful idiots.
When promoting a YT video, add the relevant keywords including the name of the channel. Recast headlines posted to social media with channel names and real keywords (NOT: BREAKING! BOMBSHELL! BOOM! WOW”)
Channels need to add Patreon and the information that they are “demonetized”. Channels can link to a website and add a tip jar.
I’ve seen small art/craft channels where the vlogger mentions a monetary need and the subscribers voluntarily take up a collection and MAIL CHECKS directly to the vlogger at a PO Box.

Demonetize the propagandists. Everyone knows how to do that. Subscribers to social media are the product. I have favorite YT channels. I note the name and search for them directly. I search using other-than-Goog engines.
NEVER open a MSM video on YT. Don’t worry, they will still show on the carousel. You can search the topic via StartPage, et al. Browse YT. The same content is re-packaged everywhere, usually by Macedonian content farmers.
If you buy their hook (news, search, entertainment), they will then sell your information and feed you their POV. Win-win for them. Lose-lose for us.
Finally: there is only so much information. Consume a topic once in your preferred form and then go away and do something else.
