The Young Turks

The Young Turks are anything but brutally honest. They constantly lie. And when they are caught with their pants down what do they do they taught and insult the people who point it out. Not to mention that the channel is called the "Young Turks" which committed the Armenian genocide which is comparable to having a news network called the Hitler Youth, which is just distasteful to say the least. The "news" anchors constantly "straw man" their oppositions arguments and "poison the well" against anyone the are debating, instead of using facts to make their point. They constantly talk down to the opposition like they are children claiming that "I am better than you, much better than you. You are garbage" And saying that the anyone with opposing view points are "F@cking dumb." In the end avoid these people like the plague, they are so partisan that it clogs their judgment and rationality.

I've been an avid TYT listening for 8 years now. I've made contributions to them. I encouraged others to listen to them. They've been my go-to for pertinent political occurrences. Cenk and Ana, I use to think extremely highly of them, but w/ recent heated debates, w/ their willingness to dabble in transphobia, w/ their susceptibility to false information (ex: Venezuelan gangs taking over Aurora, CO apartment complexes), w/ entertaining genocidal folks like Ben Gleib, TYT fell from grace. I am hurt and disappointed b/c TYT made me a progressive. (Damage Report, Rebel HQ are excluded from this).

This show is incredibly stupid, lacking in all class, grace, and credibility.

For starters, the founder is a complete imbecile who founded his organization based on the name of the fascist government that committed the Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian Genocides of 1915. The fact that the media has no problem with this but would interject if, say, he decided to call it the Nazi Party shows how disgustingly shallow and corrupt left-wing media is at showing objectivity in what they deem taboo.

The show uses sensationalism and clickbait to entice its viewers, knowing that its target audience has the IQ of Forest Gump and will succumb to any kind of cheap trick or gimmick.

Anna Karparian is a sell-out Armenian who shamelessly spews her nonsense positions with inconsistency, and her sole point of being there is to bring legitimacy to the fact that Cenk, who has denied the Armenian genocide, wants to soften the blow to his credibility by having a moronic co-host with an Armenian last name.

Cenk is also an utterly worthless, hot-headed filth bag who yells his way into attempting relevancy spews lies, deceit and, misinformation, and disinformation, all while looking and sounding like complete and utter trash.

I would give this show a -10 if I could, but I will settle for the lowest score allowed on IMDB.

This show is so disingenuous and dishonest, I cringe when I hear them talk. If you are anything but far left, you'd have to be a masochist to listen to them. They are demeaning and degrading, and essentially call anyone who doesn't agree with them ignorant, corrupted, brain-washed or evil.

They rarely give honest unbiased facts and have a history of unfairly accusing people of malintent.

My god this show is terrible. It represents the pinnacle of everything that has gone wrong with the so called progressive left. To begin with, it is completely biased to the left, expect feminism, marxim, social justice with large helpings of intolerance, righteousness and hate.

They never have any guests on with opposing views which only encourages the host "cenk" to go off on his tirades in which everyone who does not agree with him is a racists white supremacist.

The co-host, Ana Kasparian, is arguably worse, proclaiming herself to be better than everyone else, declaring those who voted for the republicans in the last election as garbage.

It is mainstream media masquerading as social media, they are funded by Democratic Party kingmaker Jeffrey Katzenberg to the sum of 20 million USD in 2017.

They took the name ""Young Turks"" from a particularly nasty political movement from the early 20th century.

The Armenian Genocide was the Young Turk government's systematic extermination of its Armenian subjects. An estimated 1.5 million people were killed.

Bit of an odd name to call yourselves unless you are trying to make a statement. Incidentally, Ana Kasparian is the daughter of Armenian parents. I find this to be a very disturbing aspect of this utterly hopeless "news organisation"
