YouTube Removes ALL Claims of Presidential Election Fraud, Continues to Let Bogus Conspiracies Flourish

By Fox Business. YouTube will remove videos and content that allege widespread voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election starting Wednesday.

Wednesday was the country’s “safe harbor deadline,” or the deadline by which state-level election audits and recounts are supposed to be completed. . .

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., criticized YouTube’s announcement in a Wednesday tweet.

“[Google] owned [YouTubbe] officially announcing free speech no longer allowed,” Hawley tweeted. “If you have concerns about election integrity, you must sit down and shut up. Repeal Section 230 and break these companies up.”

Videos claiming President Trump or any other candidate besides President-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 election “due to widespread software glitches or counting errors,” for example, will be removed starting Wednesday.

YouTube Allows Conspiracies To Flourish While Censoring Claims of Election Fraud

By The Federalist. YouTube announced Wednesday that the Google-owned video platform would be removing content critical of the 2020 election results and instead would only promote coverage from corporate media.

“Yesterday was the safe harbor deadline for the U.S. Presidential election and enough states have certified their election results to determine a President-elect,” YouTube released in a statement. “Given that, we will start removing any piece of content uploaded today (or anytime after) that misleads people by alleging widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome.”

It’s clear, however, that YouTube’s censorship is a one-way street. The new rules delegitimize claims of fraud in a pandemic contest that featured record-turnout in mail-in voting as nothing more than a bogus conspiracy theory. . .

While YouTube preemptively tears down content it disagrees with, a number of other conspiracy theories abound on the platform uncensored, ranging from Democratic claims that Russia successfully hacked the 2016 election to decrying the 20th century moon landings as a hoax.
