THE INTERNET — It hasn’t been a great month for YouTube, but it’s even been a worse month for YouTube creators. <br /> <br />YouTube is expected to lose $750 million in ad revenue after marketing groups in the UK noticed that campaigns were running along what they consider offensive content. <br /> <br />This caused 250 brands like Pepsi, Walmart, Starbucks, GM, AT&T and Verizon to head for the door. <br /> <br />So what did YouTube do? Over the weekend, they decided to screw creators like TomoNews by killing our ad revenue because of our “extremist” news stories. <br /> <br />Talking heads on the right, left and center are all feeling the pinch now. <br /> <br />YouSuck, in combination with their new restricted mode changes — which by the way have been fabulous for our channel — has effectively killed the will, and means, to create. <br /> <br />YouTube is trying to walk a fine line between pleasing advertisers and getting people to post content — and failing horribly on both ends. <br /> <br />In the meantime, we’d like to introduce TomoRainbows — not the gay ones because YouTube is demonetizing LGBTQ content en masse — and TomoUnicorns for your viewing pleasure.
