> as pop culture channels which crippled them and allowed them to be bought out for pennies on the dollar  i always thought youtube made a big mistake propping up legacy media and those shitty late night shows rather than directly competing with them with their homegrown content. it's a shame really. maybe i was naive, but since old media was getting blown out in views by new stuff circa 2013-2017, i thought they would be dead or on their last legs by now.
