  24. ABC News. Please look into this!

    YouTube will immediately delete comments like "Putin is G-A-R-B-A-G-E" with the dashes removed.

    YouTube will not delete comments like "Biden is Garbage".

    Is YouTube protecting Putin?

    Putin is not worried about being called by labels, why is YouTube so concerned about Putin?
