  1. Another major problem with this change is that it means that international viewers like me get absolutely deluged by American cable news videos. I'm a left-leaning Brit. Why in good gracious would I EVER want to see a video produced by Fox? And what's more, why should I have shows like that recommended to me, over channels like this one - which I am subscribed to? It's sheer madness, and I've actually spent time on my YouTube home page deliberately pressing buttons to ask them not to recommend mainstream media channels to me. Most people won't do this, I know, but please let me urge you to do the same thing as I do: when you see recommendations from mainstream media outlets, find the settings button (shaped like three dots, one on top of the other), use that to open a little drop-down menu - ask YouTube not to recommend videos like this, and then, if you want to go the extra mile, select the option that will block out the channel as a whole. This will help you to curate the pages that YouTube offers you. It's the only way I've been able to keep my sanity while continuing to use this site.
