Yup, YouTube finally took it down about an hour after my editor at the Los Angeles Blade ask them for the second time for a comment about why they're not enforcing their hate speech and violence-incitement policies. I don't know they were responding to us, but I do know we whipped up a lot of outrage across social media platforms over the video.

What's discouraging is that such outrage was necessary. They left that video up for 22 days even though they started receiving complaints about it hours after it was first posted.

A YouTube rep spoke to the Blade about the video last Friday, and it still took them until Tuesday afternoon to take action on content that doesn't just violate their terms of service but egregiously violates it.

It's hard to imagine how it took them this long to remove a video that calls all LGBTQ people pedophiles who should be murdered. I don't know what's wrong at YouTube, but something is clearly rotten.
