Liberal Intolerance #67: You Tube Once Again

All the death videos fit for propaganda

You Tube has pulled a pro-life video produced by America Life League for supposedly not holding up to a particular criteria, all the while allowing a Planned Parenthood video to remain up on its site. Warner Todd Huston of NewsBusters has the details on this story…

Of course You Tube has every right to disallow any video they deem unworthy of their service, this goes without saying. But, when You Tube sets up it’s own criteria for removing a video and then removes videos that do not fit its own criteria, then we have cause to wonder if a particular reason for banning videos is one that is kept secret from users. That secret reason would be a certain political bias used by Youtube to eliminate content. And, naturally, that bias is in favor of leftist causes and against the conservative ones.

Such is obviously the case with the recent removal of a video created by the American Life League that criticizes several promiscuous Planned Parenthood condom advertisements. The videos were removed, according to Youtube, because of an “inappropriate nature” and also because of complaints by YouTube members. But, the claim by YouTube that the ALL’s ad breached Youtube’s “inappropriate nature” rule does not stand up to logic or scrutiny, nor does it seem to fit their own publicly stated rules.

No real surprise here since You Tube has a history of banning video’s that appear to portray a conservative slant. What is surprising is how blatantly obvious they’re making this case of intolerance by continuing to allow Planned Parenthood to keep their videos up. The Ideology of open minds and diversity strikes yet again!
