      You do understand that’s like saying you look down on television as a medium, or magazines as a medium, correct?

        Television and magazines are far more general. Television as a medium could be compared to Web as a medium. YT could be compared to a specific TV channel.

          …Yeah, that falls apart when you consider YT is full of specific channels. That’s why I specifically compared it to TV. It’s far closer to cable than a single channel.

      The ‘medium’ in this sense is mp4 (video w/sound). YouTube is a platform.

      Is all video news fallable?
