**Breaking** TheYoungTurks Account suspended on YouTube
Has anyone heard about this? I was trying to see their vid on Obama suspending investigation on Bush and when I did the video was said to be removed. Then when I thought that was weird and my subscription update didn't show any of their vids when it listed 3 of them yesterday I was a bit suspicious so I checked it out.

They've been suspended. How long is a usual youtube suspension anywa? It's longer than a week right? I wonder what they could have said or done that would have gotten them suspended. But I saw another vid that sort of stated that they actually get suspended quite regularly.

Darn it...I wanted to hear what Cenk had to say....guess it's not too breaking when I saw the second video.

8. I had read...
Something about them using copyrighted images or somesuch, but believe that was just a reason to suspend based on conservative efforts to suppress them.

5. I wonder what they were suspended for.
Do they use copyrighted songs in their broadcasts?

9. They don't really use music. Someone said it was about the leaked audio of the bankers
from huff post that he aired. But that was a while ago.

10. Stopped watching/listening when they left Air America
I checked out subscribing, but jesus, waaaaay too much.

I hope they're doing well, but I still think moving to web-only was a pretty boneheaded move.
