  • i like cenk much better on TYT. He was way too uptight on MSNBC and he felt like a different Cenk

  • Ive never liked you.

  • @inkognitoo 158 out of 250,567, or 0.000635% of people agree with you. 

  • Cenk is a man with integrity which is a rarity in the corporately owned world of propaganda dissemination. I have more respect for him than all the mainstream "news" puppets put together. This man has proven he's no one's whore. That's what all the other news journalists are who go along with the lies and deceit of their employers -- WHORES!

  • 11:25 What's the point?!

    The NEW TYT channel: townsquare. THAT's the point

  • Sink Weeyger got booted because that Liberal idiot used to attack Republicans and thus making MSNBC Look like the fox news equivalent for Libtards! What a fucking Blowhard! Just like the time when Sink Weeyger went on MSNBC and claimed that Weiner was NOT hacked and that he had Excellent proof that Weiner was Innocent! HA HA HA !

  • good man

  • Some people are very good at acting like they have principles when it doesn't matter.  It's rare to see someone act on principles when it means turning down a lot of money. If I had any room left in my mind to doubt Cenk Uygur, it's gone now.

    Unless of course he just made up all that stuff.

  • Did he just say that O'Reilly always tells the truth?!

  • go find us a bag of salt and make it be a bag of sugar...

  • The dislikes are msnbc's staff

  • I don't think I respect anyone as much as I respect Cenk

  • You have just been awarded my virtual Dude of the Year medal!

    

  • Cenk has earned a shit ton of respect from me over the last couple months since I learned about the TYT show.

  • wow cenk just freaking wow. Glade there are still people like you in this country.

  • Is it pronounced "Senk" or "Jenk"?

  • @iasedu If it was spelled Çenk it would be pronounced Chenk, but çenk means 'harp.'

    Cenk in Turkish is pronounced Jenk, as wispa2 said. He could respell it and make it easier for English speakers...

    As for Uygur, it's pronounced like Hooey-gur without the H, but everyone says Yoo-gur instead.

  • Thank you for not toning it down.

  • It simply makes MSNBC look bad that they dropped you from their programming: numbers don't lie and you clearly were getting the numbers. You were simply too hot on politician's heels, and weren't willing to "leave it at that". Thank you so much, Cenk: we're really glad to have you stick to Youtube and Current TV

  • Cenk, I removed TYT from all my lists they day you said 'Do you think someone spit, of course...' when NO ONE "SPIT" in DC a way back. When you said that I knew you had talking points. I am sorry to see that you, like Judge Napolitano, got cut out, because you where waking people up to the truth over keeping them asleep. PS. Don't look up, we now have depleted uranium laden drones... (i)

  • MSNBC is the bottom of the news barrel anyway.

  • It was great to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the mainstream media...even one of its more benign iterations! I really feel like I can trust Cenk to never sell out.

  • you see Cenk? Vote for Obama again, I am voting for Ron Paul.

  • Cenk it was because you suck worse the all the other left leaning morons at NBC that think you are so mush smarter than everone else.

  • Cenk - you're fantastic! Best of all regards from a german-turk in Berlin!

  • You did make the right decision... looking back last year if you didnt leave, TYT wouldnt be on cable tv today!!

  • You're a strong man. Proud of you.

  • Don't use your arms? I watch this BECAUSE of your wild swinging arms.

  • Thank You Cenk...Ur a star to millions

  • Who are people gonna believe, a man who has proven himself to be very consistent in what he says and what he does OR a large corporation that caters to the needs of the government.

    Moments like the ones Cenk went through is where a person proves their integrity.

    Respect to Cenk and respect to the TYT team.

  • Glad you left. I'm a strong republican, but you didn't let them control you. Most people here may not like Beck, but he left Fox for the same reasons.

  • @saucermonkey320 I think Beck "left" because Sponsors pulled their money.

  • I appreciate your apropos about the other hosts. Good luck to you!

  • You are the Frakking man!! Damn!! Main stream media is controlled? No way!! I really do appreciate you reporting it straight!!

  • respect. when faced with moral questions you did what was morally correct.

  • Will use this video as a reference to anyone who quotes main propaganda media!

    Thanks Cenk.

  • MSNBC obviously work on the principle that it's better to have someone inside your tent, pissing out, than to have someone outside your tent, pissing in...

  • I really respect Cenk even more now. Turned down good money and a chance to join "the club".

    You made the right decision Cenk. Fuck MSNBC, Washington and all the other one percenters.

  • Is it just me, or is anyone else seeing propaganda commercials on youtube?

  • @fronkly350- Yeah, I'm seeing them too. I always skip, but then I wanted to see them and was sick to my stomach.

  • People in washington are concerned about your tone???????? Stupid crybabies. That is what our politicians are.

  • hes full of shit.

    Yea..they stepped to the new guy and tried to make him part of the "establishment" BUT...then he goes onto explain why the other hosts arent bought....Right.

    His entire explanation of the events is hearsay in the first person. No details,dates,names....either theyre all bought or you just turned it down because you were butthurt over they didnt give you 6 ocklock.

    boohoo to us about what a big hero you are.Fraud.

    the same lion at the circus

  • MSNBC has a problem with being pigeonholed as the liberal doppelgänger of Fox News. While you may have brought in good ratings in the short run, in the long run they didn't want to appear too biased.

  • @arachnophile01 That made no sense. Management wanted him to bring in MORE republicans because of the hardline interviews and strong questioning. They wanted him to go softer on the liberals. So really by ur understanding, they should have kept him doing what he was doing cause it was making the network appear non-partisan.

  • MSNBC isn't that good anyways compare to TYT. thumbs up if you agree.

  • @kent0149

    Downthumbed your comment for being a comment whore.

  • @Primordialfan1 Youmadbro? GTFO if you're a TYT hater.

  • @Teenagehero95

    Let me see. Getting one of the oldest chan mems wrong and using ''hater''.

    Confirmed for underage fucktard. Piss off back to 9gag you retarded scumcunt.

  • @kent0149 TYT is good, but Rachel Maddow kicks ass, too.

  • @kent0149 Dylan is the bomb, but TYT has always been a superior source of news.

  • @kent0149 cenk is way better on his own:) good luck:)

  • @timesplitters333 He's on Current TV now.

  • With great power comes great responsibility.

  • How is it surprising that this guy doesn't get a major network deal?

    He doesn't tow the line = no network deal.

    He doesn't know shit about the things he preaches about = no network deal.

    He comes across as a pompous dick = no network deal.

    + he's a dick?

  • @intelligentdesigner

    Good post. Plus Cenk sounds like a 16-year-old. He comes off as whiny and immature.

  • @intelligentdesigner Takes one to know one! (Illogical handle by the way)

  • This is one of the best TYT videos ever. Mucho respect to Cenk for sticking to his principles.

  • @FourthDerivative I would have sold out for the giant pay check...

  • Stick to your guns and keep taking names. Never compromise with the truth for money.

  • Why isn't their riots on the street, you could argue the government is "censoring" the news to an extent.. what is this 1930s germany..

  • Go Cenk...you da man....

  • @kevinherbert I saw him on msnbc clips on youtube, he was out of control...

  • MSNBC is owned by the military industrial complex key player General Electric...say no more. MSNBC are part of the neoconservative warmongers who have a vested interest in promoting conflict globally.....President Eisenhower warned against their influence...they run DC with the America/Israel Public Affairs Committee as their on the ground attack dogs...controlling Congress.......what a freekin' disgrace the US political scene has become....

  • You got canned because you SUCK! Dimwit liberal.

  • @TheMiker56

    shut it cunt. go watch bill o'reilly you short-sighted republican whore.

  • @igotscamed1 Whatever bitch

  • @TheMiker56

    no O'reillys on our side cunt, plenty on yours. Ever heard of Fox? Full of them, and they are the epitome of Republicans.

  • @TheMiker56 lol that's your response? retard.

  • shoulda played ball and took the money..

  • You are a hero amongst modern men

  • Dont ever change Cenk..I watch you every day...

  • Boring rant.

  • I like this guy. sane guy among the likes of fucking animals like limbaugh, beck, etc etc.

  • Your integrity is astounding.

  • tyt army going to rise up

  • did this prove the Illuminati exists :P

  • right on brutha

  • great expose the corruption and mainstream medias ties

  • I think your presentation is fine for the TYT but you don't have the sand to carry a heavy hitting news show. You really want to be John Stewart more than a serious news man. You've got the whole meat-head banter down and a lot of people like that but it doesn't fit well with the tone of MSNBC. When you make a critique it comes off as a joke but it's hard to take any serious message away from your show. You're entertainment more than credible news.

  • I love you Cenk a lot. One day I hope to meet you!!!

  • Bullshit...He got fired

  • @tomas6262 u wish

  • Ratings don't mean very much. O'Reilly bragged about the numbers all the time. The common refutation of that point was that spongebob squarepants still has higher ratings than him. The exact same thing is true here.

  • Aslanim Cenk. Iste simdi harbiden Genc Turk oldugunu gosterdin!

    Sen Uygur Turkusun, Dogu Turkistan'i da sakin unutma.

  • Time to wake up America the news wants you to stay gated in the pasture headed to the slaughter house when u going to fight. we are 99%.

  • The press is supposed to be challenging the government...

  • I disagree with Cenk's ideology for TWO reasons:

    1. I believe the King James Bible is the infallible, perfect word of God to English-speaking people. He obviously doesn't.

    2. He doesn't like the South. I'm from the South.

    However, I have tremendous respect for him because he is real. Even though I disagree with him, at least he is fair and respectful to his guests, doesn't endlessly bash anyone who disagrees with him, and I believe he truly loves America.

  • @Blunic That's not a fake persona; that actually is how he's normally like. TYT Underground shows as much.

  • The Young Turks (Turkish: Jön Türkler) were a coalition of various groups favouring reformation of the administration of the Ottoman Empire. The movement was against the absolute monarchy of the Ottoman Sultan. The term Young Turks referred to the members of Ottoman society who were progressive, modernist and opposed to the status quo. This is the definition of Y. Turks on wiki, replace "Ottoman" with "Media" and it exactly fits.

  • Adam gibin adam helal sana cenk.

  • I'm a conservative, and I am a huge fan of this guy!

  • This is the most honest speech I've ever heard from someone who has worked for a media giant about his job.

  • NOWTHIS IS INTEGRITY!!!!

  • EXPOSED!!! Nothing new, THE CLUB!!! They control what you know, TYT is palying outside of their little box they want to keep your mind in. I LOVE IT....WE ARE ALL WAKING UP!!!! TIM RUSSERT WOULD BE PROUD,....

  • looks like Cenk got screwed by the illuminati

  • its cause... TYT ARMY IS TOO STRONG!!!

  • cent is really awkward. i love watching tyt, but he needs to change his voice a little :s

  • uygur 2012!

  • I love how Cenk claims it was 'people from Washington,' pulling strings to stop him doing a show. Fuck me, do you believe that bullshit? He got pulled for being a shitty host.

  • @willsbanana

    trolololololol

  • @Graaaady Not really? what you believe what he is saying?

  • @willsbanana

    Do I believe the factual numbers that prove he's a good host?

  • @willsbanana No, he didn't play up the false R/D paradigm. He was pulling the curtain back. That's a big no-no.

    The parties only vigorously argue along a very narrow band of "acceptable" political thought. Anything outside of that is verboten.

    That's why we get the same monetary system (fiat currency, planner interest rates, the Federal Reserve), the same foreign policy, the same centralized national governmental system instead of decentralized federalism, etc. from both parties.

  • @willsbanana Watch "Cenk Uygur Goes Ballistic At Former Republican Congressman Bob McEwen For Social Security Lies" Are you sure? lol

  • He was kicked off for being a shitty host. This explanation shows how narcissistic this ugly toad really is. The reactions show how gullible all you people are 

  • Cenk, the world needs more men of principle like you. Stay strong.

  • you are a genious, haha. STAY STRONG CENK!

  • Thanks for the explanation Cenk. You are very diplomatic. From my perspective, like all the other mainstream stations they tried to put you in the zoo. Yes, I'm shocked Dylan is on the air. A real puzzler. Good job taking a stand.

  • Strong man

  • MUFASA'S BACK

  • You are a douche bag! It's clear that you do what you do for money! Your 17 minute rant is about why you need to be recognized and why you don't get the atention you need. BTW - Everyone tuned out after the first minute.

  • You're a very strong person Cenk!

  • I like this dude, but why is he bragging about having 51,000 moe viewers than CNN. That is like such a small fraction of a tv audience

  • My problem with Cenk is that he doesn't research his material and makes emotional and unverified statements about some of the topics he covers. He will create a "stick man" argument and then knock it down with his own views. It is obvious that he is "shooting from the hip" without giving serious thought to his comments.

  • @steeltalon2011 He doesn't have time to research every story he does.

    Other stations are larger and have people that take care of that

  • @TOTCD I hear you. But, you have ask yourself given what you said about his lack of research staff. Why take your time to listen to him if his conclusions are credible? Whenever I listen to him, and that isn't very often, I always feel like he isn't thinking through his comments. For example, he took 17 minutes to explain why he left NBC that he could have been summerized in 2-3 minutes. What do you see in him?

  • @steeltalon2011 Okay good point.

    The reason I listen to him is because he fights for the small people in the US.

    Which most people don't do.

    He asks himself tough questions about the elite.

    One of the foundations of our democracy is freedom of speech.

    And the media is a powerful tool.

    He does a better job than the mainstream media

  • @TOTCD Any particular subject you have in mind?

  • 147 dislikes?...147 MSNBC accounts

  • Thanks Cenk.

  • W

    h

    o Cares bitch. ....we all know that you were fired.

    You're fucking lame ass middle age man. fuck your friends

  • @jordana8899 fag

  • @awsumpossum1 Hey.. joke is on you! I fucked your mother, last Friday night! :)

  • @jordana8899 jokes on you I have 2 gay dads.

  • @awsumpossum1 Hahahah...well, all jokes on you now! You're the fag, your father is a real Faggot. and I fucked the woman that gave you birth. You're fucked up all over the place.

    stop humiliating yourself faggot

  • @jordana8899 nope i came out of some guy, no woman involved. jokes on you still :O

  • @awsumpossum1 No honey, your gay dads lied to you. You came from a woman's ass! NOT your dad's ass....even if your dad's asshole is bigger than your face.

    Joke is on you, dumb bitch.

  • @jordana8899 :O my dads asshole is quite large

  • I think you´re a real journalist.

  • Cenk the tank!

  • Cenk I really love you and your show. But what I didnt like is when you tried to convice us there is no pressure on other shows on msnbc to tone it down and stuff like that. there definatly is. the whole reason why keith olberman left msnbc is because he was too tough and anti establishment.

    since msnbc got a new owner (cablecom) there is a new tone down there. they want to get more conservative

  • i've always hated my grandfather. egotistical prick.

  • Are you people on dope? Cenk was dismissed because his timing & delivery are terrible...terrible. Sharpton's just as bad, as broadcasting is not their calling. Fox's Special Report with Bret Baier is intellectual analysis by guys like Krauthammer, whereas pMSNBC's 6pm slot is nothing but flippant rhetoric whose guests do nothing but agree with the host...which is why it always, always loses to Fox. Truth hurts, I'm glad.

  • Comment removed

  • @KyonIsDictator, spark another owl & give me a real debate on this next time.

  • @shawnpeters73gmail

    I wonder what world you're sitting in; dismissed because of his performance as an anchorman? Are you on crack? Every anchorman goes through adjustments and corrections on there "timing and delivery". As far as I see it, he was spot on with everything and I've seen many anchormen struggle on the mainstream media and they're still airing the very next day.

    Don't be delusional, the reason Cenk was dismissed is more clear than your tap water.

  • @SupaKaream, that's just where we disagree, I suppose...you dig what he's saying so it doesn't matter how he says it...I just thought it lacked credibility because he was so overly biased...liberal or conservative, you have to be suspect of any complete lack of objectivity (Olbermann, Maddow, Schultz, Rush, Hannity, or O'Donnell)...beyond that, Cenk just seemed awkward, like a fresh college grad at a new job, kinda callow & intellectually pretentious.

  • Providing those figures, will be a great opportunity for TYT to get the attention of more sponsors.

  • Sadly, only 232,181 people really know how the corporate media operates.

  • Maybe Cenk should have been on CNN with the silver-haired fox.

  • Good man! Sticking to your guns rather then lining your pockets and becoming another talking head.

  • proof the media is owned by the elites of the world behind the curtain

  • Looks like the establishment got a little nervous with someone who wasnt gonna play ball - Keep spreading the truth Cenk!

  • Good onya Cenk!

  • What income wld Cenk be on now? How much does TYT earn? I am TYT army for years now & I have no malice in these questions, just wondering as I have no idea how utube &the web pays? Can I earn money watchin it?lol

  • way to go cenk u da man!!!!!!!!! we need more ppl in the news like u

  • maybe cenk was making other hosts look bad by comparison. if you start a job where the guys complete 10 units per day and on your first day you produce 12 units, they come to you and say 'slow down, you are making us look bad, don't raise the bar'.

  • You made the right decision Cenk. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT! Tons of respect from me to you! Imo having REAL integrity is the greatest trait a person can have. Sadly, VERY FEW people seem to have it these days that's for sure. Even though I don't always agree with you, keep on telling it as you see it. That's why TYT is as big as it is, b/c you guys keep it real. People have been tired of the mainstream media FOR YEARS B/C WE WANT THE TRUTH!

  • If any of the news outlets had half the stones as Cenk, then perhaps politicians would smarten up and fly straight. Maybe we wouldn't have the utter absurdity that is Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman. And maybe, just maybe the government would start being held accountable for their actions to the people. How do you spell 'Integrity'? C E N K.

  • You truly inspire me Cenk! The USA would really be a different country (for worse) without you. Thank you for creating the most trustworthy, entertaining and down-to-earth show yet. Congratulations TYT!

  • Cenk Uygur for President!!!!!!

  • Man, the mainstream media and the government form one big circle of bought truth. It is like that in Europe too. The moment a government office offers special privileges like tax cuts for the news corporation, it is already in the government's pocket when it comes to the content control. There is no good business-wise argument to not take that kind of deal.

  • You all are surprise to find out that MSNBC is exactly the same as FOX NEWS? lol dance puppets, dance.

  • Cenk, hats off to you. Incredibly rare integrity in today's public world. Moreover, since you came back to TYT full time, the show has been much more enjoyable and intellectually satisfying. Shows that you're the backbone holding it all together. Keep up the amazing work, man.

  • Ya..whatever dude..stop FALSE DMCAing people about your REPUBLICAN view points...you're a right wing nut job masking as a liberal. You know it is illegal to file a false DMCA? It's a felony.

  • Comment removed

  • this is why we love you cenk. keep it up, preach the real american ideals

  • Cenk Uygur= Man of true integrity!

  • Comment removed

  • For a couple weeks now, YouTube no longer shows TYT videos among my subbed videos. And when I click on the channel page, it shows this video (which is several months old now) as the third-most recently uploaded video.

  • Cenk Uygur FOR THE WIN. TYT army supports you :D

  • Your the man Cenk, you got big brass balls. TYT Army marches on!
