I used to love TYT, but eventually their whole formula just felt really off-putting to me. I still agree with their takes on most things, at least Anna and Cenk, but I can't tolerate watching them much anymore. One thing that always drove me crazy, and lots of people do this these days, was when they would follow their opinions with the word "right" while subtlety shaking their head in the affirmative. It might not even be a conscious thing they're doing, and I probably agreed with their opinion a lot of the time, but it feels brain-washy to me when anyone does it. And then Anna just loses her composure all the damn time, at least when I was watching it regularly, like she can't talk about so many different subjects without exploding.
yeah from what I have seen I have been in agreement but in general I just don't get my news from video like that but seeing someones opinion once in awhile is nice. Honestly media types have to put out so much content to stay relevant that I just don't have the time. written word is concise and often I just want the facts (which seems almost impossible to get nowadays.)
