  1. Fair enough @IanM , but it isn't the national news ... just a guy trying to make a living. We can always choose not to watch. Personally the only 'news from the breach' I'm interested in is the opening date. Rog
  2. Court above the Cut is one of the best for reporting the actual facts/ researched information as opposed the sensationalist drivel that a lot of the youchoobers spout. Unfortunately if you don't do the "right" things e.g. a sensationalist title & jazzy thumbnail you don't start picking up the views and get left behind by "the algorithm", it's necessary evil sadly.
  3. I think that if you're going to 'report' on something like the breach then it should be educational and impartial. It isn't the latest events in Eastenders or something which isn't real.
  4. You do realist the entire purpose of these videos is to get clicks (because clicks=money), and more sensationalism=more clicks plus (hopefully) more people forwarding it to their mates saying "Wow, look at this!" ? They're not doing it to provide an impartial factual information service, they're doing to to make money... 😉 (and there's nothing wrong with that, it's a perfectly normal way to make a living nowadays, along with being an "influencer"...)
