After rolling back its election misinformation policy last year, YouTube allowed right-wing media figures to undermine confidence in the 2024 election results even before any votes were cast, with streamers asserting that “the only way this election can be won from the left is if it's stolen,” suggesting that “illegal ballots” might be “slipped in” in Pennsylvania, and claiming that Democrats are trying “to rig and steal the election” including with an “illegal alien push.”

In December 2020, after states certified their election results, YouTube began removing content with false claims that widespread fraud had changed the outcome of the election, but the platform reversed that policy in June 2023, saying that it would “stop removing content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches occurred in the 2020 and other past US Presidential elections.” (The decision was cheered by right-wing media.) Over the last year, right-wing creators have exploited YouTube’s policy rollback, especially in the months leading up to the 2024 presidential election. In July, for instance, Media Matters reported that after becoming co-chair of the Republican National Committee in March, Lara Trump repeatedly engaged in election denial on her show that streams on YouTube.  Right-wing podcaster Steven Crowder even acknowledged the policy change during an August stream on the platform, saying, “Here’s another way that they try to steal this election from you. And we’re allowed to say that on YouTube now, which is great.”

New Media Matters study finds hundreds of videos on YouTube with election misinformation

In a new study, Media Matters reviewed YouTube content streamed or uploaded between May 1 and August 31 by 30 right-wing channels or channels that hosted notable right-wing figures. We found 286 videos — totaling at least 44 million views and including at least 93 monetized videos — that contained misinformation about the 2020, 2022, and/or 2024 elections. 

According to our study, former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani was the most prolific election misinformer, accounting for 77 of the 286 videos, and right-wing streamer Benny Johnson had the most videos that we observed with preroll ads. We found that in the two months after WABC canceled Giuliani’s radio shows (May 10 through July 12), he relentlessly claimed on YouTube that the 2020 election was “stolen” and Democrats were “going to cheat” in the 2024 election. More details on these findings can be found here.

We also found Johnson pushed election misinformation in dozens of monetized YouTube videos from May through August. These videos — which each included preroll ads, paid promotions, and/or Super Chats — have earned millions of views. More details on these findings can be found here.

YouTube permitted numerous right-wing pundits spew out content undermining the confidence of the 2024 election results to push out nonsense about “stolen” and “rigged” elections.

BERNARD: Welcome back to K-Bear radio. You're listening to Chris in the Morning. Chris in the Late Afternoon actually. And this isn't Chris Stevens. It's Bernard Stevens, sitting in for my brother, Chris. Chill, Cicely. For the names may change, the tune remains the same. And by the way, my brother Chris would like to thank all of you who've called in to express your support. We're all hoping for a speedy recovery from whatever it is that's been afflicting him of late. In the meantime, a big hello to all of you out there from all of me in here. As you may know, I spent the last three months in Africa, a wondrous, magical place. But as shadows lengthen across the K-Bear window, thoughts turn to homecoming, journey's end. Because, in a sense, it's the coming back— the return— which gives meaning to the going forth. We— We really don't know where we've been... until we've come back to where we were. Only where we were may not be as it was because of who we've become. Which, after all, is why we left. Do you have anything to add, Chris?

This sampler works on paper only, unfortunately. The songs are great (obviously) and the artists are all excellent. I guess the production lets this amazing project down. A missed opportunity.
