The Young Turks 

The Young Turks was a once awesome progressive news show on YouTube hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian with over 3 million subscribers and 3 billion views. Founded by Cenk Uygur in 2002, it was dubbed "the first internet news show" and as a result became very successful. Their success however has been halted, as the show is now past its prime and the ratings are not nearly as good. Unfortunately, for the past few years TYT has taken a steady decline. As of late, they have embraced SJW culture and feminism and are ruining what it means to be a progressive, by embracing regressivism instead. In addition to that, they have also become polarizing and extremely liberal as they slander Trump and the Republican Party at every chance they get. And embarrassingly enough, they have become so careless and slanted in their coverage that other YouTube channels have debunked their videos countless times, exposing the logical inaccuracies in each video. Perhaps the only redeemable thing that they have done recently is endorse Bernie Sanders. But other than that, TYT is past its prime and is getting PROGRESSIVEly worse as we speak.
