The confusing response from YouTube comes as social media companies face pressure to contain misinformation and avoid political bias — especially around the contentious 2020 U.S. elections. The company removed livestreamed channels on Election Day after a report found YouTube was showing misleading voter outcomes.
Early Wednesday morning, President Trump falsely claimed presidential victory even though millions of legitimate votes had yet to be counted and races in half a dozen swing states still had not been called.
Several hours later, One American News Network, which has 193,000 YouTube subscribers, posted the video. In it, an anchor says Democrat leaders are “tossing republican ballots” and “harvesting fake ballots.” It remained on YouTube for two hours and racked up more than 150,000 views before YouTube placed a label underneath the video that says “Results may not be final.”
“The Democrat party wants to hold Americans hostage and they’ll use violence to do it,” the anchor says in the video. “Democrats are boldly cheating because they think they have you fooled. Let them know, they aren’t fooling anyone.”
The anchor urges viewers to “take action” and “rise up” while the video displays phone numbers of Secretaries of State for viewers to call.
On Thursday morning, OAN uploaded another video titled “DAY 2. TRUMP WON. DEMS TRYING TO PULL FAST ONE” that started with Bobb stating, “Trump won, but Democrats think we’re stupid and they tried to steal the battleground states.”
Following inquiries from CNBC, YouTube appended a label to the video titled: “Results may not be final. See the latest on Google,” but not until tens of thousands of viewers had seen the video without a label. As of mid-morning the video had still been running ads, but Google said it planned to remove them under its “demonstrably false policy,” since the election has not been called.
