2. Another grossly mis-titled video. Is that just a DU thing?

Seldom, almost to the point of "in no way" was the media even alluded to, much less mentioned, in Kirschner's informational segment. If the titling was preinstalled by others it deserves the effort required to appropriately edit or at least key in a disclaimer. After all, are we but hungry little fishes who bite at every hint of bait, the hook unseen?

7. The reason why most of the members posting videos in this forum use the exact title as shown on

YouTube is to reduce the number of duplicate threads being posted in this forum. On busy days, there can be as many as 120 videos posted each day. Rhiannon12866 and I use exact titles and we also attempt to indicate the source of the video in the thread title. I also am making an attempt to replace in any words in the titles with lower case characters as a homage to internet etiquette.

It should be noted that nearly all of the videos from individual personalities will have clickbait titles, particularly when compared to more mainstream news outlets. Providing the source of the video alleviates some of those comments so that they aren't directed to the person posting the thread.

8. That's a very thoughtful and in-depth post and I appreciate it.

I will put some effort into understanding the rationale. These are the days of propaganda vs facts in all contrivances. Meanwhile, I think, perhaps, some simple code as a sort of forewarning would be helpful.

How about a bold "CBT" (click bait title) added along with the video and it's initial title? If I see CBT on a post, I'll know the title and the content don't necessarily align. Also, I'll know the individual posting already knows and acknowledges that. Voila. Next.

so adding more to the title of the thread is nearly impossible.

I doubt that you are going to get the more frequent posters in this forum to agree on anything, particularly thread title nomenclature. I'm sticking with the format that I'm using--I view it as being similar to how a reference would be noted for an editorial. Sticking with the original title of the video and also noting the source also makes it much easier to find the thread using the search functions on this site. Making up a title and not including the media source makes the search engine about as useful as searching for the word "tweet" --you'll get hundreds of threads with "Tweet of the Morning", "Tweet of the Afternoon", "Tweet of the Day", etc.; however, none of that information will assist you if you are trying to find information that may have been posted a month ago.

sympathetic to Republicans tax breaks.

We have to do grass roots, social media, etc and assail/embarrass the media to get the word out.
In some cases, go after the advertisers. etc

After the proof that was being put forward during last night's hearing was so compelling, afterward MSM had admitted they had still attempted to be FAIR and present both sides, as if the J6 is a both side issue. This video did not reflect what I thought I was going to hear.
