Awesome YouTube video of Cenk Uygur interview

posted by bluefella

When did this video come out and why didn't we hear more about it?  If you haven't seen it, give it a watch.  I found it on YouTube when searching for any unbanned footage of TYT.  It's a short, simple interview of Cenk Uygur that relates his journey toward becoming a progressive talk show host.

I think this short clip would be a very good advertising tool between subscribers and friends/relatives.  It is about 5 min long with Cenk talking sense and hitting all the basics and leads viewers to the site at its conclusion.  Near the end, he discusses the discrimation that Muslim-Americans face and how it has affected his life.  A quote from the interview regarding Keith Ellison, "Actually, it's egregious that we haven't had him on our show yet.  But we'll fix that. So he'll be on the Young Turks soon."

Interesting but... (none / 0)

I thought the video left the impression that Cenk is a practicing muslim. It would have been nice if he mentionned that he doesn't really believe in religion anymore anyway.

I think that makes the whole argument better.

What was up with the size of that guys mike?

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. 

I'm pretty surprised Cenk wasn't more direct about that during the interview.

Yeh, I do wish he had mentioned that... (none / 0)
I still do wish they will interview Keith Ellison and discuss how Keith is/isn't a praciting Muslim, what does that mean and how Cenk is not and thinks most religions are crazy.  I posted this and emailed the show to remind them that they need to have that interview with Keith.
