YouTube’s Real Name Comment Policy, Twitter Censorship, & More (The Point) (by townsquare)

Will YouTube’s plan to clean up insulting and counterproductive comment sections work? Was Twitter right to ban a journalist for criticizing NBC’s Olympics coverage? What should we make of the YouTube/TV crossover (Phil DeFranco hosting Shark Week, Michael Buckley hosting with Kelly Ripa, Annoying Orange jumping to Cartoon Network, etc.)? Meg Turney (Cosplayer & TV Host) leads this weeks panel to discuss these issues and more with Will Hyde (Social Media Reporter, and YouTube star ‘The Will Of DC’), Andre Meadows (Comedian, and YouTube star ‘The Black Nerd’), and Misty Kingma (Entertainment Journalist - Clevver Media). Special thanks to Shira Lazar (Host of ‘What’s Trending’) and Guy Adams (Writer for ‘The Independent’) for sending in points.
