Google is way more effective removing the monetization of a video because there is 2 seconds that sound like a copyrighted song than anything else. Because it is not a problem of removing content, it is a business model problem. YouTube incentivizes highly controversial videos and scare videos as they gather many views quickly.
Traditional media with its curated content creates an editorial line that needs to defend and can easily have a big backslash. YouTube continues to be immune to consequences to the extremist content that it publishes.
YouTube should be a platform were you pay-to-publish videos and you are responsible for the content. Instead of that, YouTube is a publisher with all the rights but no duties.

Because that is a way easier problem to solve. I'm not up on modern AI, but I can imagine figuring out how to catch unlicensed material when the owners provided me a copy. The idea of understanding the factual correctness of any arbitrary video seems impossible
