Speculation FOX is censoring YouTube

Careful that phrase isn't taken out of context. Clinton's comment was that nobody knew Al-Qaeda existed in 1993 when the US was involved in Somalia. Though some now speculate Al-Qaeda operatives may have been involved in the "Black Hawk Down" incident during the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu, that connection has not been confirmed. Moreover, it would have been impossible at that time to know the full extent of Al-Qaeda's future operations, particularly the attacks on US territory. In fact, EVEN IF that were the organization's first operation, how was the military or intelligence agencies to know it was not the Somali warlords? That was the most imminent threat - by a long shot - at that time.
Careful that we do not condemn someone over intelligence gathered after the fact.

ComSen, if they were truly concerned with taking down copyrighted material, they would be taking down ALL of the interview clips, not selectively taking down some and leaving the ones that present Clinton in a bad light.

Also, as exhibited here on the Vine, speculation is often treated as the truth.

APparently in NEO land, once you cant convince people that FOX has every right to do thins, then you claim thast people that are "Speculating" this take it as gospel.
ANd ofcourse the neos dont do any speculating? Because everything they believe is 100% true..
likes Iraqs wmds, and irans is making a bomb

I think the idea of the same company owning fox ending up owning a social networking video based site containing entirely user driven content (other then their own ads and such) is HILARIOUS. They would either drive it into the ground, or it would end up causing a lot of trouble for FOX, with it's whole "post stuff like it IS instead of what someone might WANT it shown" idea of spreading videos.

youtube is at a point now that i don't think it can be killed. if it's bought and basically changes into something where the users don't feel free to say/post what they want, another site will end up taking it's place, there are other smaller sites similar to youtube already trying to get users, although none with as much of a community feel it seems...but change is inevitable..who knows what lay ahead....

YouTube is a real Content Nation, similar to file sharing systems in that once you have a crowd that taps into this way of sharing content it tends to seek whatever venue supports their interests. Still, there are enthusiasts who care about who's controlling things and enthusiasts who don't, so you can expect these services to be bought and to be co-opted over time.

I know, tragic. If only there were some other way to make it available for viewers... something that works with YouTube, Yahoo!, Google Video, incorporates BitTorrent to minimize those bandwidth issues, and could actually use the support. But where would we find something like that?

Indeed, it is very new. It's still essentially in beta, but what I've seen of Democracy so far I like very much, hence the suggestion. It represents an actual attempt to democratize the media distribution system, much the same way that YouTube is apparently trying not to. And the more people use it, the better supported it will be given that that's how BitTorrent works.

And besides, anything that carries feeds of Adult Swim and French Maid TV can't be all bad, can it?

Heh, I use that for a few things now, if people started usuing it with more original content it could get interesint indeed.
