While everyone is going to want to jump to some sort of blatant collusion, some points to make:
- The interview got heavily recommended to me via the algorithm
- Search clearly doesn't mind pulling up official clips or even more blatantly right-wing channels
- This has been a known behavior for YouTube search for quite some time
YouTube doesn't reveal much about how their search or their algorithm is designed, but this happens a lot for me when I look for specific videos. My guess is they seem to favor driving people in search to smaller channels, more "family-friendly" clips, less watched videos, and overall better monetized content.
- viridian 2y agoWhat I find strange is that I was able to search it last night no problem, but just tried and now I can't. It's not the only change that went live today as far as I can tell though, it seems like they are also A/B testing not showing view counts on the home page based on other twitter posts.
