Comments on: Does YouTube have a “girl fight” problem? http://theutubeblog.com/2007/10/11/does-youtube-have-a-girl-fight-problem/ an unofficial blog on YouTube + the video file sharing industry Sat, 24 Oct 2009 03:12:13 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: cheryl http://theutubeblog.com/2007/10/11/does-youtube-have-a-girl-fight-problem/#comment-83280 cheryl Sun, 17 Aug 2008 14:31:36 +0000 http://theutubeblog.com/2007/10/11/does-youtube-have-a-girl-fight-problem/#comment-83280 I am greatly concerned about the violence against children that is posted on Youtube. Worse, the violence isn’t always confined to Youtube; sometimes the event is reported by the local news and the TV station broadcasts the Youtube debacle to God and everybody. When I called my local new station to ask why they had to show a girl getting beat up on Youtube on the five o’clock news, they responded that it was to "increase awareness." Awareness, indeed. I would have preferred to have been made aware of the heart-breaking story by hearing about it, not by having it re-played in my living room. Whether the perpetrators are famous or infamous, they receive the fame they were looking for when they committed the crime and then posted it.

Even if they are not, humans have been fighting for centuries. Now we have the means to view it enmasse. Some of us enjoy this stuff. If you don't like it, don't watch.
