YouTube suspended Right Side Broadcasting Network’s (RSBN) account for two weeks over President Donald Trump’s CPAC speech and then removed the video.
The video had almost four million views. RSBN also said the video has disappeared from other YouTube accounts.
I searched “Trump 2021 CPAC Speech” on YouTube.
I found snippets of the speech, highlights, news reports on the speech, and outtakes from late-night shows.
I cannot find Trump’s 2021 CPAC speech.
Russia Today reported that YouTube removed the speech from its YouTube account:
On Tuesday, RT and its German-language channel RT DE got a notice from YouTube that the video of Trump speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Florida on Sunday was being flagged for a “strike” under the platform’s rules on “supporting the 2020 US presidential election” announced in December.—Yet when asked for a clarification, YouTube responded that the video lacks “enough context that additionally describes and demonstrates that this is Trump’s violative CPAC speech” and that “more details and explanatory information must be provided.”There was no answer as to how such details and explanations should be provided in a live feed that did not have a correspondent commenting, or if it would be enough to include it in the text description underneath – something RT and our video news agency Ruptly have repeatedly asked about, without ever getting a response.After RT’s inquiry YouTube proceeded to delete the video outright, for violating its “spam, deceptive practices and scams policy.”
