OANN is the only actual news channel on cable. This is exactly what Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot did.
OANN is one of the only news outlets, if not the only one, that reports real news. They have been critical in the post election war of disinformation, lies, and coverup. What recourse do decent, freedom-loving peoples have? How long are we to accept this crushing suppression of our most basic human rights? They will imprison next.

If not for OANN we would never have learned of the two-year investigation into voter tabulation systems. This news is urgent.
BREAKING: OANN suspended from YouTube for ‘misinformation’
By Ian Miles Cheong, Rebel News, November 24, 2020:
YouTube has suspended ‘One America News Network’ from its platform following a letter from Democrat Senators calling upon the video hosting platform to ban channels spreading election misinformation.
On Tuesday, four Democratic senators sent a letter to YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki to press on the company to ban channels that spread “misinformation” about the election, which President Trump contends was ‘stolen’ from him through electoral fraud in states like Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
YouTube claims that OANN violated their policy on COVID-19 misinformation. In a statement to Axios, YouTube said that it does not consider OANN to be an authoritative news source.
In the letter, penned by Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) and his three colleagues Sens. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn), and Gary Peters (D-Mich), YouTube is urged to remove election misinformation videos that “boost false fraud claims, seek to delegitimize the 2020 election results, sow public discord and fuel civil unrest.”
“[T]he platform is now home to an ‘onslaught of videos aiming to undermine the legitimacy of the election,’” the senators wrote, quoting a Bloomberg article. “These videos seek to undermine our democracy and cast doubt on the legitimacy of President-elect Biden’s incoming administration. Moreover, because the current president has not committed to a peaceful transition of power, misinformation and manipulated media content on your platform may fuel civil unrest.”
The senators called on YouTube to implement a prohibition on misinformation videos ahead of the Georgia run-off elections on January 5.
Under the platform’s current guidelines which were adopted in August, users are not prohibited from posting content that questions election results or how election official count votes.
“The outcome of these races will determine what party controls the U.S. Senate; and for that reason, the races are expected to garner significant national interest,” the senators wrote. “YouTube and its industry peers must take responsibility and immediately stop the spread of misinformation and manipulated media on their platforms.”
Dear Ms. Wojcicki:
We write to express our deep concern regarding the proliferation of misinformation on your platform during and immediately following the 2020 elections and in light of the upcoming Georgia run-off elections. We urge you to immediately remove all election outcome misinformation and take aggressive steps to implement prohibitions, as other social media companies have done, regarding outcomes in future elections.
In August 2020 when YouTube updated its policy regarding misinformation and manipulated media, the platform notably refused to prohibit users from posting false content on the outcome of the election or the manner in which state and local officials counted votes.[1] As a result, the platform is now home to an “onslaught of videos aiming to undermine the legitimacy of the election.”[2] For example, one YouTube video claiming evidence of voter fraud in Michigan has more than five million views,[3] despite any evidence of such fraud.[4] These videos seek to undermine our democracy and cast doubt on the legitimacy of President-elect Biden’s incoming administration. Moreover, because the current president has not committed to a peaceful
transition of power, misinformation and manipulated media content on your platform may fuel civil unrest.
As you know, on January 5, 2021, Georgia voters will cast their ballots in two runoff elections for Georgia’s U.S. Senate seats. The outcome of these races will determine what party controls the U.S. Senate; and for that reason, the races are expected to garner significant national interest.[5] YouTube and its industry peers must take responsibility and immediately stop the spread of misinformation and manipulated media on their platforms.
We respectfully request responses to the following questions by December 8, 2020.
1) Will YouTube commit to removing content containing false or misleading information as to the outcome of the 2020 elections and the upcoming elections in Georgia? If not, why?
2) What steps has YouTube implemented since announcing its prohibition on voter suppression content?
3) What steps will YouTube take to ensure that the platform is free from content that suppresses voting, incites violence, or makes false claims concerning the casting of ballots surrounding the January 2021 Georgia run-off elections?
4) Please provide our offices with any YouTube research concerning the platform’s amplification of groups or organizations using YouTube to spread election misinformation.
5) How much in ad revenue did YouTube receive from videos showing election result misinformation?
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

If the Biden “transition” is really starting, and America is now undergoing reassignment surgery – transitioning into a mad Islamic woman – Trump has limited time left to do the right thing. He has about 10 weeks left.
YT, Facebook and Twitter all allow radical Islamic terrorist-related material on their platforms, they allow Muslims to make death threats against non-Muslims (and each other, as always..)
So why shouldn’t the leaders of all 3 of those organisations be arrested and tried for aiding and abetting terrorism, and for treason?

Geesh…. lunch chums with Bill too…
He drank the Kool Aid and rethought the Clinton’s.
I’ll be curious to see how they report on the Clinton’s now.
He also claims to chat with Trump.

Disagree with the Marxist Dems and you have no 1st Amendment! Media sources are rapidly becoming like the Chinese media! What do you want to bet these 4 Dems are owned by the CCP? CCP Biden and the Harris/Soros administration will no doubt duck tape our freedom loving mouths. 😉
I was wondering why I couldn’t find OANN on Youtube. I hope Oann moves to Parler.

Yes, these tech companies can make a mockery of the First Amendment. Even mises.org has found itself buried (can’t have the rubes questioning the Fed, now, can we?).
This is from theepochtimes.com today:
The national news media stole this election, as far as I’m concerned, they deliberately stole it from President Trump,” MRC President Brent Bozell told a Tuesday during a news conference in releasing the survey results. “It is absolutely unequivocal, it cost Donald Trump the election.”
You see, a poll from The Polling Company showed nearly 10% of Biden voter in key states would not have voted for him had they known about Hunter and Sleazy Joe’s “assistance” in his career, a story MSM buried. I would post a link to the article but it’s behind a paywall.

If Biden takes over, you will have real fascism in the US, with total censorship of center-right/Conservatives and any other views that don’t fall lockstep with Liberalism and Islam, Pam is totally correct they will start criminalizing opposing views.
One of my Youtube accounts was also suspended because I spoke the truth about Islam and Muslims, it wasn’t enough that they were already regularly censoring (auto-deleting) my comments they didn’t like. Hopefully Trump proves he was the real winner then takes his gloves off and goes after the fascist Left media. Curtailing freedom of speech is an even greater danger to western civilization than Islam right now.

Back in April of last year, I was in the habit of visiting mohammedan sites. They didn’t like my comments and many complaints were made. Some went so far as to say that my “content” was hate speech and was encouging violence against moslems.
I pointed out, to YouTube Support that I had never posted ANY content. That I simply hurt the feelings of moslems, worldwide, with my truthful comments.
As you can see, from the following, I was reinstated. It’s rather common for moslems to band together and go after an individual. If I was ever to make a trip to pakkyland, they’d be waiting at the airport, ready to mete out a death sentence. Pakkies and paleswines are SO sensitive.

Why, thank you Poppey. I haven’t been a real tear for a while. It’s time to start frequenting mohammedan sites. The poor little moslems become so angered, just by how this moniker insults their god, mohammed.

I believe, my friend, that Fascism is a mentality, while Dictatorship and Tyranny, which are almost synonymous, are regimes. A dictator is always a fascist but there are also leftists who are fascists, as well as some others, that have nothing to do with politics
I believe that Islam is a fascist regime with a religious overlap.

I was signed up for notifications from OAN on You Tube. I’ll be spending less time on the platform because of this. When they ban every channel I follow, I will never use their site again. That is the consequence that they do not seem to know they will face. So their market will decline and subsequently their revenue will decline, and on it goes. They could be on their way into what I call, draining into the sump hole! (An open ended drain pipe on an oil platform that goes from the main floor of the platform to just above the water below.)
You should still be able to find OAN on Direct TV, one of the satellite TV stations.

This is outrageous and now we are suppose to sit still while Big Tech monitors what we are posting. An absolute intrusion into my right to free speech, something I am entitled to under the Constitution. It is time for the federal government to reign in Big Tech, they are and have been abusing the privileges granted them under the 230 exclusion and I RESENT IT!!!!! These billionaires need to be taught a lesson on self control. For me, I am not going to support this. Although I need a new laptop, I will use this one until it dies and then do without. I resent these techie. self appointed experts preaching to us as if they are entitled somehow. They can take their opinions and their billions and put them where it is very very dark and the sun does not shine.
