‘Disappeared’ – Chris Hedges responds to YouTube deleting his six-year archive of RT America shows
6 Apr 2022
YouTube has deleted the entire archive of On Contact, an Emmy-nominated television show by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges which was hosted on the Russian government-funded news channel RT America.
Democracy Now speaks with Hedges, who connects the YouTube censorship of his show to a growing crackdown on dissenting voices in American media.
“There’s less and less space for those who are willing to seriously challenge and question entrenched power,” says Hedges, who says “opaque entities” like YouTube shouldn’t have the power to take down outlets like RT America, despite the channel’s source of funding. “Are we better off not hearing what Russia has to say?” asks Hedges.

ReplyDeleteYou don't find disgusting Russia's complete shutting down of its independent media ?
Mfer, don't u have labelled Russia a authoritarian dictatorship?
DeleteSo what's the definition of that label in yr fart filled dictionary?
Whereas yr demoNcratic capitalism has openly shouted loud & clear about that 'freedom of expression' & 'politically correct' demonstrations w/o restrictions!
So, u still want to take a lesson in hypocrisy?

DeleteThat is beside the point;
Communists are autocratic, that's what you said. America is democracy and freedom this freedom that, that's also what you said, but you always left out they are also hypocrite.
