In reply to the discussion: TYT Anchor quits live on air! [View all]Wiz Imp
(2,635 posts)13. Good for Mondale Robinson for doing this.
i know many here gave up on TYT a while ago. But to say nothing has changed is disingenuous. The problem isn't TYT as a whole, it is specifically Cenk & Anna. They may not have ever been some people's cup of tea but they at least generally advocated for most progressive policies when they started. But they have drifted further and further from progressive positions for a long time. Now they are openly advocating for MAGA viewpoints. It's really disgusting. That is why Mondale quit and many others have done so in the past year. There are still some good people working there. Hopefully, they join their progressive brothers and sisters and quit as well.

I quit watching TYT several weeks ago, unsubscribed from their channel, I just didn't like what they were saying. nt

Yes, I agree it would be helpful if anyone posting videos would provide a synopsis of WHY it is worthwhile watching.

Well, to some of us, "The Young Turks" just brings to mind the revolution in the Ottoman Empire

It's this shit that caused him to quit and should cause every other real progressive still working there to join him
