The problem with even the ones who 'point it out' forget they are doing it themselves... Notice that particular youtube channel is usually attacking in some form republicans. He just wanted to make a piece that made fun of fox news is all (which isnt even that hard to do). That particular channel uses the 'your not stupid are you?' sales pitch. There are much better pieces out there that demonstrate the effect of adverts disguised as news. In this case fox is using attractive women to put a pretty picture on the screen (most of the news orgs out there do this).
For some reason a few years ago it flicked on like a switch for me. I can usually smell a sales pitch. That is what all these guys are doing. Selling me something (usually their opinion). They are using 'news' and 'sarcasm' as the vehicle to do so.
Like I said we are the product being sold a product(s). Much of what is going on those channels is the same techniques that used car salesmen use to get you to buy a car. They use them because they work.
Many of these sorts of shows use shaming which is just a form of manipulation to affect the outcome they want. I find it repulsive and shady.
