In 2017, YouTube has expandedtremendously and has been recognized as aninfluential social platform to millions around theworld. These reasons below will explain whyYouTube today has taken over television andhas become a better source of entertainmentand influence.Since I began watching YouTube as my mainsource of entertainment and informationaround the beginning of middle school, I have come across many channels whose creators Ihave felt a personal connection to. On YouTube,there is a much stronger link between thecreator and his audience because their poweris derived from the audience. Most channels arenot sponsored or supported by other networks.The creators rely solely on their audience whichbring in the views and the views, combined withadvertising, are how the creators make theirmoney. On television, the cast and creatorsare paid directly by the network that they aretelevised on. Personally, I love this connectionwith the YouTubers that I watch on a consistentbasis that are grateful and ever so thankful fortheir audience.We’ve all been on YouTube with the intent onwatching a specific video and found ourselveshours later lost but captivated by the vast worldwithin it. The diversity within the platform isincredible. Channels can focus on my differentcategories from gaming to beauty, vlogging toreaction videos, and even channels focused onnews within the YouTube community. Answer the following questions in completesentences:1. What reasons does the author give to support the idea that YouTube channels aremore reliable than television? 2. Would you like to create a YouTube channelyourself? Why or why not?64Read the article once again. Analyze it using the chart below.What?s the main ideaof the article?What does theauthor do to catchthe readers’ attention?What informationdoes he use inthe introduction?What facts does he useto show that YouTube isbetter than Television?What examples doeshe use to supporthis ideas?To what conclusiondoes the author getin the end?.Diversity to this extent cannot be found within televisionand is a reason many millennials and upcominggenerations are slowly switching to YouTube tobinge watch while they lay awake at night oruse to procrastinate homework or something ofgreater importance.I’d be lying if I said neither my friends nor myselfhave had the idea of creating a YouTube channelin hopes of gaining an toenjoy the process and create videos with theright intentions, not to make money and gainrecognition. Many YouTubers have gainedexposure through their love of creating videos audience and creatingentertaining content. YouTube provides anytype of person with this opportunity. You don’thave to be an incredible actor, be the funniestperson around, or have the best equipment.You just have to have an idea and pursuethat idea wholeheartedly.
