Google-owned YouTube has banned One America News Network (OAN) from posting new videos for a week, and demonetized its existing videos, alleging that the broadcasting network — a favorite of President Donald Trump — broke the platform’s coronavirus rules. The network was an early reporter on the severity of the Chinese virus pandemic, and its reporters called for a travel ban on China long before Democrats and the corporate media. “We were the first network in the country to have someone call for a travel ban due to the severity of the coronavirus all the way back on Jan 22nd while yall were peddling a sham impeachment,” said OAN correspondent Jack Posobiec in a tweet. I see @OANN is trending We were the first network in the country to have someone call for a travel ban due to the severity of the coronavirus all the way back on Jan 22nd while yall were peddling a sham impeachment You’re welcome! pic.twitter.com/4OXfY7qF6g Jack Posobiec ???????? (@JackPosobiec) March 19, 2020 Reuters published this explanation from YouTube for the censorship of OAN: YouTube said on Tuesday it had barred the right-wing outlet One America News Network from posting new videos for a week after it broke the site’s rules against content that claims there is a guaranteed cure for COVID-19.
