OK so I don’t have Twitter and I have social media blocked basically so I wanted to see the ad, right? I went to YouTube to pull it up.
It was really bizarre - if you search for “Harris ad trump sleeping” you get about 100 - OK 20 of the exact same clip from any number of local TV stations (most of the Fox) where Trump claims Harris is sleeping. And one - exactly one - MSNBC clip, which runs for 12 minutes talking about “exhausted” trump, and doesn’t even show the Harris ad. The Harris ad did not appear in the search at all.
Now I’m not “signed in“ there, I don’t have cookies or anything so I’m just some random browser showing up asking to see the Harris ad and seeing 90% Trump ads.
I don’t know what else going on at YouTube, other than it’s awful and worse than ever, and appears to be subsumed with Trump crap.
The video was a tweet. You won't find it searching for an ad. It was embedded in the article.
Why would I not find it searching for an ad on youtube? I’ve found lots of ads on youtube in the before-times.
Because it isn't an ad
Was it a video? I hear they have those on youtube. The article made it sound like there was audio and video together, not just text.
And anyway isn’t it called an “x” now? I’mma x all my friends to find out.
Remember when boomers thought Internet Explorer (or maybe AOL) was "the Internet"? This reeks of that.
Here, I'll make it easier for you:
