  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?

  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

YT:Mainstream media continues to call out RT for our journalistic practices, yet the rest of the news world is neglecting to cover the real news in lieu of sensational scandals. Lauren Lyster shares viewer feedback and compares RT with the rest of the MSM.

*promote

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Saturday, June 4th, 2011 4:46pm PDT - promote requested by LarsaruS.

it's amazing how 24-hour news networks don't seem to have enough time in the day to deal with all the news, and have to go use crap-"news" like charlie sheen or some other non-important non-issue.

Shit... if I had a 24 hour news network, and in my country that particular day was a slow news day, I would go looking for more important news somewhere else in the world. There's almost 7 billion of us. There is ALWAYS something actually relevant and actually important going on.

It's not surprising when you consider that: five companies produce 80 percent of the U.S. media, the best-selling magazine is People, and advertising revenue plummeted after the invention of the World Wide Web.

*controversy

Adding video to channels (Controversy) - requested by MrFisk.

A major problem is that America's news outlets are all profit driven.

Charlie Sheen is the lead story because Charlie Sheen draws eyes. Eyes mean $$.

How do you fight human nature? Especially when it is in the major corporations' best interests (ie $$ and more $$$) to "sell" the fluff?

I fear for us.
