The Young Turks, arguably the most popular liberal-leaning news channel on YouTube has now LESS subscribers than Steven Crowder, a conservative political commentator.
Ben Shapiro now has over 4 million subscribers, most likely going to eclipse even the The Young Turks.
He has more than other popular liberal political commentators like Sam Seder, Secular Talk, etc.
Why are more conservative/right-leaning political commentators/YouTubers gaining more popularity than left/liberal leaning ones?
There are a variety of factors at play. Some a consequence of the rising influence of nominal conservatism in the American electorate, some the result of the nature of the media and audience segmentation.
To take the last first, timing is everything. The overall tilt in American media beginning in about the 1970s was to the left. However, beginning in about the 1980s, the advent of cable, personal computers and the like changed the nature of media and what had once been a mass phenomenon - mass circulation publications, movies (first silent, then talkies), radio, and television - began to become more targeted.
The first to recognize this, ironically, were two conservative media magnates. Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes. They founded Fox Television and captured in one place the conservative segment of the audience. This leaving the remaining media outlets to divide up the rest of the audience. The result was to give Fox, in effect, a comparatively huge audience, whereas MSNBC, CNN and the rest divided the remainder.
Suffice to say, in terms of market share, this gave Fox a comparatively huge audience that it retains to this day. This, in turn, giving relative conservatives a point of common reference and a network - in the community sense - to publicize other conservative commentators, even those not directly affiliated with Fox.
To this then add where the nation is politically and culturally. With the advent of the Reagan presidency, the dominant ethos in the country has been what Americans call conservative. (As myself a classical conservative, what Americans have historically called conservative is actually classical liberalism - "that government is best which governs least" - with elements of Protestant social traditionalism thrown in.)
Prior to that, from FDR's "New Deal" through the Carter presidency, the dominant ethos had been "radical" progressive liberalism. (The term "radical" here not meaning what it means in contemporary usage, i. e. extremist. Rather meaning as the ancient Greeks used the term - "To the root of.") Thus did Eisenhower (R) accept large government social engineering - see also, in that case literally, the interstate highway program. Thus did Nixon (R) famously say, "We are all Keynesians now." (This referring to the economic theories of John Maynard Keynes whose ideas inspired the New Deal.)
With the galloping inflation of the 1970s, the New Deal era came to an end and what might be called the Reaganite era was born. Thus did President Clinton (D) announce, "The era of big government is over." Thus was President Obama (D) unable to get "Medicare for all" out of a Democrat controlled Congress. (Thus compromising with Obamacare.)
The Reaganite era coming to an end, ironically, with the populism of the Trump and Biden presidencies and where that ends remaining to be seen. Yet in terms of media, it has left nominally conservative media in a dominant position. The conservative media often taking on a populist tone. This leaving the "liberal" media in "opposition" at a time when the technology is further reinforcing audience segmentation.
Finally, there is just the simple fact that nominal conservatism is more popular. The cultural/social/political/economic environment at the moment is eerily similar to that of the late 1970s. (High inflation, foreign policy failures, social unrest.)
Thus just making conservatism more popular at the margins. Put it all together and you get a formula for conservative media dominance and thus an audience for "right leaning" thinkers and commentators.
Whether that last remains to be seen. However, put together a 1970s feel to the economy and the culture with a media that is even more technologically accommodating of audience segmentation than it was in the early days of the tech revolution in the 1980s, and you get advantage "right leaning" commentators. It is a real dominance born of a variety of factors, and all the more real for that.
I think the main factor is the left have been shown and proven to lie time and again, with no consequences. People get tired of having smoke blown up their ass.
Just a stab in the dark: I’m thinking whoever’s chosen political party is NOT currently in power, at least in terms of the White House, that group will be the most energized until things flip. I guess I did notice that the Trump camp was particularly loud during his presidency, Trump supporters are honestly a faction like I’ve never seen before, the loud ones, anyway. All of our mainstream news is FUCKED right now, nothing is neutral, nothing tells you the whole story, and the major networks seem to spend more time disparaging the rival networks than actually delivering news, and when they actually DO deliver the news, it’s heavily slanted. Just tell me the whole story of what happened. I’ll figure out my feelings on it. Knowing how Tucker Carlson or Rachel Maddow personally feel about current events is decidedly “doing it wrong.”
Point is, all these fugazi media outlets like FoxNews and CNN and MSNBC should not be taken seriously, but I fear the average human is WAY too stupid to recognize that. And with that, the majority of American humanity is walking around parroting someone else’s opinion in an attempt to sound informed and astute. And there’s interest, and subsequently, money, in the business of outrage. I don’t see a ton of liberal media, it’s not what my dad watches and I personally can’t be fucked to become part of the flock of sheep, lmfao, but the conservative media I see, at least the prime time “opinion” shows, are EGREGIOUS in their slanting of the story. Like I live in the real world, and what you’re claiming the real world is…. it simply isn’t that, in my experience.
So all that said, we have half of America walking around misinformed one way, and the other half misinformed the other way…. not good. Anyway, back to the Youtubers and whatnot…. Ben Shapiro knows it’s GREAT for his business if he keeps his listeners outraged about whatever he’s on about that week. People who are talking heads on TV or the Internet…. let’s not be naive and think they’re genuine. There’s money in this, a good amount of it, both directly and indirectly (publishing books, other paid appearances and speaking engagements. I’m not saying Ben Shapiro or anyone else is necessarily faking their political views, I’m just saying it behooves them to be “extra” about it, because if they make their audience upset and anxious, they’ll keep tuning in. If he was just like “well, Trump’s out, Biden’s in, Biden is fine, nothing too wild to see here, gas is up, costs are up, but inflation was economically inevitable after a pandemic just due to usual supply-and-demand theory”, people won’t have it at the front of their minds, they won’t be having a fit about Democrats, and they’ll watch something else…which equals less money for the personality. That just seems to be conservative media in a nutshell lately, whipping people into an unnecessary frenzy. It’s probably similar with liberal media, but like I said, I usually catch much more conservative news. It’s not to necessarily point fingers at one side, but there really does seem to be an extraordinary amount of fear-mongering and grievance politics from the right.
Anyway…. point is, I think when your party isn’t in control, you’re much more focused on current events and future upcoming elections…. remember EVERYTHING is about the ‘22 midterms. The republicans hope to regain the congressional majority, and of course, it’s in their best interests to make everyone believe everything is on fire under democratic management. Republicans complain about mask mandates and all that, but come the fall, trust me, they’re PRAYING that Covid still isn’t under control, that the economy isn’t recovered, because “Let’s go, Brandon” sells. Covid isn’t any American political party’s fault, I wouldn’t blame it on Trump or Biden or anyone. It’s an unenviable problem to be saddled with. But no one will take that rational approach, it’s all just Republicans trying to make Democrats look bad, and vice versa, and it just makes america look very stupid.
But yeah, I keep getting off topic…. bottom line: if Trump ran and won in ‘24, or really any republican wins the presidency, left-leaning stuff will probably take back over, just because outrage = intrigue.
In few years we will see it what happens. Whenever a "wing" tend to become radical, it has a big backlash. More than two decades ago Hollywood, media, politic etc were pretty right wing and it got radicalized due to religious fanatics, etc to the point people end up being left and obama became president but today the left from 10 years ago is considered as "right" and look what happened to joanne k. Rowling. The harry potter writer got cancelled by leftists although she is a liberal feminist lol. I tend to be liberal but the problem with today's leftist politicians is that they try to get votes by every group or minorities like lbgts, feminists, muslims although it does not make sense since muslims are very conservative who does not support lbgt and so in short they dont care about anyone but votes. Then america is actually a conservative country and so i am not suprised. I also want to say that i dont understand why people like steven crowder only discuss with clueless college kids who are not even prepared while he is a professional speaker who prepares himself before discussing and so his arguments are ready. He should discuss with another professional speaker and not with clueless kids who get choosen and are not given time to prepare themself. I really dont understand why his fans are so dickwhiped and dont even critizise him for this. You can like him but you can also critizise people who you like
I said etc. And this may be a misinformation and i also suck at expressing myself and as you see English is not my first language and this is why it is difficult for me to express myself. I read my post again and what i mean is that hollywood, politic etc used religion, conservative values to get , clout votes e. g which was a turn off for many people. In turkey the government is very conservative that use religion to get votes etc and as a result many people leave their religions.
@goaded, cop movies aren’t inherently conservative. And Hollywood has never been majority conservative, or even close. Even Reagan was a liberal Democrat when he was making movies.
The college kids are the heart of the woke generation. Although they have no life experience, they consider themselves experts on any topic. They are instrumental in which way a country will lean politically and socially. He is simply demonstrating how ignorant and naive college aged people are, and that they are very poor examples to follow. .
Nothing wrong with being liberal at all, but making it the only opinion you can express is just unfair to anyone who thinks differently. As long as everyone is allowed to speak their mind in a kind and considerate manner they show allow for all opinions. It’s not what you say but how you say it.
Swing too far and the public will shift back in the other direction. EVERYONE other than the far left knows that they have swung WAY too far to expect the public to follow them, and it is easy to really detest The Squad.
It all has to do with balance (in a broader perspective). Currentlym the scale has tilted for too long towards the left. The far-left (the Woke, modern feminism and the LGBT community) has proven itself to be utterly ridiculous. They have been screaming to have a voice and be free to live life how they want while at the same time do not grant these things to anyone who don't share their own perspectives. This is why people try to balance things out by leaning more towards the right. When we see "too much" of either side, you will surely see people lean towards the opposite.
In today's western society, we see that the left has a habit ostracizing, demonizing and cancelling people. All while those same people (who the left tries to silence) may very well speak from a rational point of view and common sense. And they wonder why people don't like them and start to lean more to the right.
Feminists are slowly but surely start to regret everything and we also see that the left consists of the most miserable people. The big shift is about to come. This scares them and they definitely should be.
I don't like leftists because they preach about what I must accept, how I must live, and try to tell me I'm not allowed to defend myself or the lives of my family and friends. I hate cowards too afraid to accept that I have the right to defend my life, to carry a firearm for protection, and if a fool breaks into my home then the Castle Doctrine needs to be in place. I feel less safe with leftists laws and regulations. My girlfriend is tired of theiving assholes going through her store stealing tens of thousands of dollars worth from her store and then lazy good for nothing coos doing nothing to stop it. They should be getting locked up and having their welfare programs revoked but nooooooo let's protect criminals with sob stories. In tired of hearing about how covid is supposedly so scary and deadly while not enforcing the boarder to protect against new strains. There's more to say but my thumbs are killing me from all the he texting. I'm sure most leftists think they are doing the morally right thing. But really they are doing more harm then good. Also Cenk is a pedo and Don Lemon is a racist asshole.
In the case of Youtube specifically, it's because as the right has gone further-right, they have had to flock to more agnostic media hosts. And once those sources start rejecting them, they basically curl into a corner of the internet to dissolve, as we've seen with people like Alex Jones and Steve Bannon. It's also where you tend to go when you are somewhat enraged by something. After some girls spread rumors about me and threatened to kill me, I ended up on an MRA youtube binge for like a summer. That and Reddit were like the only places that had content that made my anger feel validated.
Similarly, with the exception of certain leftists like Kyle and Krystal Ball, Youtube leftism tends to jump straight into a preachy, overanalytical direction that finds new and clever ways to demonize you for existing. Like, without checking, tell me right now whether this is a real YT video title from someone with more than 10k subscribers: "10 ways your accent is actually racist."
Poe's Law.
It gets lots of clicks but not a lot of subscriptions because stuff like this is pretty much the #1 reason so many people are fed up with the left, even though the majority agree with their stances on things like healthcare and education.
Obvious because people like what they’re saying. The left has been increasingly toxic and dishonest, naturally people are going to be driven away. TYT is the a good example because it’s the biggest, yet also supreme ultra trash. Every time I give them a chance and look for a contrary opinion on topics, I see them straight up lying to their audience.
E. g, they’re putting graphics of things they’re saying about a story, but when they get to a detail which they make a claim contrary to what everyone else is saying, they don’t show the graphic of the thing in question: a social media post saying something, they that it’s not true are very specific about what it says. But the post is still available to the public, if you just look at it, because they were so specific, it’s very apparent that they are boldfaced lying.
I’ve seen things like that from tyt consistently, and this is one of the big leftist media channels? When the best they have to offer is hot steamy trashcan juice, naturally people are going to find their way to better sources on the right.
Any time the public is not pleased with whoever is the majority in power, or at least whoever is the guy in the Oval Office, there will be an increase of people looking into the other side. It's normal, and to be expected. When Obama was in office there was lots of blue love and support all across the board after America was tired of Bush and all his wars, and because Obama was doing things - and trying to do things that a Conservative congress was trying to block him from doing - that were new and popular with America.
Americans are impatient people, and we change our minds a lot. When we finally get a democratic president we're happy, but if the guy or his party isn't making things happen in a snap then we're all ready to be like "Screw them, I'm voting red next time."
Ho-lee CRAP. I thought this was a JOKE. But no, apparently it's real; there actually IS a sizeable following of a newsgroup named after the folks who perpetrated the Armenian genocide. Well, the twentieth-century one. Um, the *first* twentieth-century one, anyway.
I mean, I get that there was quite a bit more to the Young Turks movement, and much of what they did is even praiseworthy, but genocide is pretty much the bull-moose gold medal winner in terms of human awfulness, and overshadows everything else- or should, anyway.
But the sad thing is that most people aren't even aware of that, and I doubt it's a factor in their popularity. I'd wager that has more to do with public distaste for whatever party/ideology is in power, coupled with the (let's not mince words here) insanity of the American Left over the last several years. I'd be curious to see how it breaks down worldwide.
Right wing commentators focus on being what people want to hear, and find (or invent) the facts to justify themselves after already deciding the narrative. Left wing commentators try to limit themselves only to an interpretation of the facts which means the left wing narrative is always going to be boring unless the real world situation they are describing isn't boring. This is why democrats only get elected >after< republicans fuck everything up instead of beforehand to prevent their sabotage in the first place.
If it were, then left wing commentators would be more watched. Indeed, the closest we come to left wing commentators are late night comedians, but they tend to skip politics entirely if there is nothing interesting to talk about - again, they can't make stuff up like the right can. Left leaning viewers will tune out of a commentator that has a record of not reflecting reality. Right wing viewers don't hold their commentators to any such standard so their audiences grow in proportion to the size of their lies. Like a DnD game where the deeper the fantasy the more onlookers will be interested in onlooking.
This is, in fact, the main divide between the two sides: the unavoidability of reality versus the messaging that it can be avoided after all if we just agree to ignore it. I will not spend a single instant denying the far greater appeal of the latter, but you must at least admit it is irresponsible. The left's frustration over the placement of this weird battle line is taxing, no doubt. Indeed, it's so common they made a whole satirical horror movie out of it (Don't Look Up, if you haven't seen it). Everyone seems to know the right lies to its base - even the right base seems to know but only pretends to go along with it because there is nothing liberals can do to prove they know better. I have no idea why that would be a satisfying way to lose everything, but I'm not a psychologist so I suppose i wouldn't..
Because right-wing sources even though they are in a niche, they tend to not be extreme or cater to extremist. While most left-wing sources tend to cater to their extremists which is a small portion of the left wing.
Most Americans are in the middle, leaning to left or right. Anyone who is clearly within a niche but cater to a particular side of the middle will always end up getting more traction.
Because they are going to get their die-hard fans, they are going to get the broader audience, and they're also going to bring in some people from the other side who are in the middle but disagree. A reasonable level of controversy.
That's why guys like Pakman, Crowder. Shapiro, and Kyle Kulinski have a strong base and longterm will grow. Tho I'd say Pakman and Crowder are dishonest at times, overall all these guys are intellectual honest and that comes through
I've watched some of those youtubers, not many... and it is funny when they go to college campus to interview self proclaimed liberals who say they opposed what Trump did and then have the interviewer point out. Well sure Trump is doing this now, but Obama was doing it too, and you just said you loved everything Obama did.
The looks on their faces when they get caught is hilarious.
I think a lot of it has to do with civility. The progressives haven't done themselves much favors with extreme views and attitudes that come off as condescending or hostile in the face of opposing view points. Whether it is because they feel threatened at lack of argument or because of past debate experience is another story.
But their attitudes towards opposition, conservatives especially is particularly unpleasant. Progressives have hijacked liberalism and have dragged them into their group by being the face of liberals. I believe it helps conservatives seem more logical and levelheaded by comparison, it also helps that media and big tech censored the hell out of them for a while after the election last year, unlike their left wing counterparts who were just as guilty as violating terms and conditions on these platforms.
Hypocrisy, authoritarian approach, extreme ideals pushes people away from your cause. So that could be another driving factor.
The algorithms push conservative commentators. The algorithms works based off of number of shares and viewing time.
Conservatives get one link watch it to completion then send it to 10 conservative friends the cycle then repeats.
Liberals tend not to watch liberal commentators to completion. We also don't share as much because we assume our friends can look up information themselves.
Thus the algorithms see that the conservative videos engage more people for longer hense they spread it widely.
I'm very liberal and my news feed is constantly recommending fox news videos.
That's absolutely not what's happening. If anything, the algorithms SUPPRESS conservative commentators. They're just getting way more views and the algorithm can't deal with it.
The left wing has lost its mind worldwide, this is the response.
All the tech companies say that there data analytics points to an oversharing of conservative view points not an under sharing. I'm not a conservative so why the fuck do I get conservative talking heads when I never watch Fox. I agree the algorithms are fucked but they spread conservative messages far more than liberal ones.
Yea, I'm sure the companies that have been actively promoting wokeness for years now are totally honest and forthcoming with their analytics regarding conservative commentators.
Yeah they aren't trustworthy. But at the end of the day they are still a business and will do what makes them the most money. And spreading the more clips as fast as possible is there goal. So they have little reason to lie about what makes them money.
And how being a right winger is better? Right wingers love to whine about stupid useless things such as trans women in restrooms and abortions not Healthcare or fixing up the economy
I'm not inclined to simp for any of these podcaster types of any persuasion. Even if I happen to personally like or agree with them, most of them are glorified VPN salesmen. (Better that than shadow-funded propaganda puppets, but I digress).
But between irritating, unprincipled, lunatics who hate me (lefties), and occasionally cringey but clear minded and lighthearted normies (rightwingers), it's no surprise that the latter get a lot more organic traction.
Okay, so this might be an unpopular opinion but I am subscribed to crowder and I highly enjoy the change my mind series he has. Watching liberals try to make sense of shit they believe that makes no sense is awesome to me and has taught me quite a bit about how they think. However I have to disagree that the right gets more support from the companies. YouTube has unsubscribed me multiple times from his channel. I have had to resubscribe many times I want to see a video of his. If I search news i usually see more left leaning stuff. Maybe people like crowder get more fans is because the stuff he does isn’t made to directly smeer others and lie but he is honest and comes with facts. At least in the stuff I’ve seen that’s not opinion based. I’ve never seen a good counterpart to that from the left leaning media.
Ah, yes, the "I'm an experienced debater and have come to this place with a weeks' worth of preparation to have a totally equal conversation with some teenager who hasn't looked into the subject in depth".
If u believe something and haven’t researched it enough to know what your talking about that makes u ignorant. Pretty much the textbook definition of ignorance. All I’m saying /:
Abrasiveness. Three things you can bank on selling in this world forever, an infinite supply... Sex, outrage, and fear. You can never go wrong playing into these three things, and the entire Right has mastered two of them, Fear and Outrage.
@jerdanro Fear of something that's killed one in 400 Americans, and outrage at someone being slowly killed by a policeman in full view of the public, vs. fear of vaccines that help keep people alive and outrage that people be asked to wear masks to keep people safe?
One example of each. The one attributed to the left is shared by many on the right. The one attributed to the right is held by a minority. Not a great representation.
@jerdanro They never tried to overturn the election, not even in 2000, when it came down to 500 votes. It's called the rule of law. Trump is still claiming he won, with not a shred of evidence and he made the same lies in 2016 in case he lost.
As to the economy, which has nothing to do with "outrage, and fear", it was just a continuation of what was happening under Obama, plus trillions in fiscal stimulus that Republicans would never allow a Democratic president and would have had far more positive effect going to the working class.
You're conflating Trump with everyone on the right. Many people on the right didn't and don't support Trump. The trillions being spent have led to huge inflation. It's not helping the working class. It's made our dollars worth less.
@jerdanro I'm not unreasonably conflating them, the majority of Republicans do support Trump and believe his lies. If you don't, you should reject the party, at least for one or two election cycles, until they get over him.
Trump's tax cuts helped the rich more than the working class, the bipartisan pandemic measures helped the poor and working class immensely, but they were only passed because the president was a Republican. Now the president is a Democrat, NOT ONE Republican will vote with all but 2 of the Democrats to help their constituents.
I disagree. I believe build back better and other policies would only worsen the economy as the recent fiscal measures have. The middle class and poor may have more money but their money is worth less. We have also created a system where far too many americans are dependent on the goverment for financial support. The Federal reserve is going to increase interest rates several times over the next two years to tame inflation. Unfortunately, with more regulation and higher taxes lead to stagflation. The GDP has already risen at a rate much liwer than predicted and even the President has predicted much lower growth over the next several years. Somewhere around 2%. Trump is a dick. No doubt, but his fiscal and foreign policies were more effective. His domestic policy and personalith left much to be desired.
I'm also not convinced that most consevatives support Trump. The Republican party leadership certainly supports Trump publically, as do those who vote for any republican as a kneejerk reaction, but I don't think that is representative of the conservative movement. Nor are they racist, homophobic, transphobic, and evil.
Regardless of your beliefs about BBB, most of the provisions in it have massive popularity among voters. You'd think at least one or two Republicans would want to listen to their voters, or at least agree to vote for a bill containing a subset of policies (that's how negotiation is supposed to work, not "we want it watered down, but we won't vote for it anyway"). If you want to move people away from being dependent on the government, raise the minimum wage, so they can afford to live on one or two incomes.
I'm making a distinction between conservatives and Republicans in general. I vote for moderates from both parties. Unfortunately the mainstream democrated party seems to be moving much further to the left than the Republican party is to the right. In the first quarter of 2020 the real GDP (i. e. adjusted for inflation) dropped by 10.5%, largely if not entirely due to covid. Over the next 3 quarters (as of jan 1, 2021) the GDP increased by slightly more than 10.5% back to pre-covid levels. Real GDP numbers aren't available past July 2021, but GDP for the last 12 months (not adjusted for inflation and higher than real GDP with any inflation present) was 1.1%.
@jerdanro Do you really believe that "the mainstream [Democratic] party seems to be moving much further to the left than the Republican party is to the right."? In a lot of ways, they'd be happy returning to Reagan's policies.
Have you considered the maths of what you said about GDP in 2020? Reducing something by a percentage, then increasing by the same percentage doesn't quite get you back where you were.
"Oh and 1/6 was perpetrated by a very small number of radicals and was denounced by almost everyone." Yes, but organised and encouraged by a very small number of important people and most Republicans who denounced it ended up falling silent or pretended it was no big deal (even the one who was helping barricade the doors).
That, and the attack was just part of the attempt to overthrow American democracy.
You're right about the math. What I meant was the entire loss was regained during that period. The left in the US has gone extremely far left. I'd welcome going back to Reagan's policies.
Look at what is going on in our country with the current president!! What a joke. He has given China access to our nation's power grid, first day in iffice shut down a pipeline ir construction thereof that cut 10's of thousands of jobs, reversed Trump's plan on reducing the of such medical need as insulin , Big Pharma loved that!! Opening up the border to undocumented illegal immigrants who aren't vaccinated while slmist demanding that U. S. CITIZENS get vaccinated, I have not been vaccinated and that son ofa bitch is NOT gonna make me put that shit in my body!! The Communist Liberal left is trying to systematically strip us of our constitutional rights and tear diwn the fabric of the Nation to bend us ti their will. They want total control if our lives. Wake up America!! Hitler promised good things too!! Look what happened there!!
Likely a significant, if not primary reason, is that far-right channels are slowly being taken down, consolidating right-leaning audiences towards more socially-acceptable commentators like Crowder, Shapiro, etc. Meanwhile, there's greater tolerance for left-wing or otherwise "progressive" speakers on YouTube and other content-creation platforms, thus a similar-sized (or even larger audience) is distributed amongst an order of magnitude greater-number of creators.
So, in short, there are less conservative youtube pundits than progressive ones, and thus they amass larger audiences since there's fewer to go around.
Because American liberalism is a joke a bunch of fucking whack jobs screaming sin at everything trying to police what's wrong or right according to their own skewed values it's nothing more than a facade to seem like a righteous human being to people they don't even know it's fake and bullshit and so many people see straight through it it joke to the rest of the world
Because liberals pay attention to a lot of reputable news sources. We don’t have to seek out sources of misinformation that conform to our beliefs, I read the New York Times, Washington Post, The Seattle Times, The Atlantic, Harper’s, Vanity Fair, Wired, and others.
