How Do You Discover and Verify News Using YouTube?

problem

I watch news on YouTube using the Channel groups and rating extension.

Why YouTube?

  • I know that YouTube has over 37 million channels and over 2 billion users, offering a large selection of sources and many critics.
  • Text information is easier to fake than video information, which is why I prefer video.
  • Under each video, you can see statistics of views, likes, and comments, providing additional context about the news.
  • Many videos have transcripts available, allowing you to search for specific phrases.
  • Timecodes can be left for moments in videos, enabling users to justify their conclusions in comments based on exact video moments.
  • A premium subscription saves time by reducing advertising.
  • Many experts interviewed by news agencies have their own YouTube channels, which often contain more information than the interviews themselves.

Why use the "Channel groups and rating" extension?

"Channel groups and rating" is an extension designed to organize hundreds of different YouTube sources efficiently.

Functions of the Channel groups and rating extension:

  • Filter videos and subscriptions by rating and groups of YouTube channels.
  • Group YouTube channel subscriptions and manage YouTube folders.
  • Group YouTube comments by channel.
  • Enhance the YouTube subscription manager on the management page for better channel organization.
  • Classify, categorize, and organize videos within YouTube.
  • Specify personal ratings for subscriptions (channels).
  • Bind channels to YouTube folders (groups).
  • Sync data with Google Drive.
