Yesterday’s broadcast was blocked immediately after it ended. But the villains in the Kremlin had nothing to do with it. The copyright maniacs stepped in. During the program, I showed 40 seconds from an American comedy show as an example of how our “elections” are covered in the West.
YouTube’s bot detected it instantly and blocked the entire broadcast. So we had to delete everything, cut out those 40 seconds, and upload it again — losing 110,000 views in the process.
If anyone is curious about that clip, it was Trevor Noah — you can watch it here.
