    There’s plenty of scope on YouTube for content creators. The bigger reason that stuff like that fails is that typically people leaning left tend to be younger and more tech savvy. Whereas people leaning right wing tend to be older and stuck in their ways and so they need content on traditional broadcast television, or they don’t watch it.
