Suspect in YouTube Shooting Angry That Her Videos Had Been 'De-Monetized'
The media’s part in this:For whatever reason they started scouring youtube for “controversial” videos checking if they had ads (no matter how little views they had) then they would contact the advertisers for comment.Advertisers would initiate damage control and pull their ads from youtube.Youtube would explain that the numbers and views in question are insignificant and that this type of complex system can never be 100% error free but they reluctantly imposed restrictions.After successfully manufacturing a story and gaining attention and traffic reporters continued scouring and contacting advertisers forcing youtube to enact tougher restrictions.They then would extended the coverage to the anger in the youtube community and how it’s tough for them out there with all the latest policy changes.Rinse, repeat; keep reporting on any video you find disagreeable no matter how little views it has..

.Be sure to remind youtube of their power and responsibility after tragedy strikes.
