Tag: Unauthorized

It will be interesting to see if YouTube follows through on what are rumored to be plans to ban everyone associated with Proud Boys and Infowars:

I have an insider at YouTube and he’s telling me all the scoop on the imminent conservative purge. Stephen Crowder’s on the list, Paul Joseph Watson’s on the list, Owen Benjamin is on the list, anyone remotely associated with Proud Boys or Infowars is on the list.

Apparently this is supposed to happen on December 10th. We’ll see. If it’s true, then we can safely conclude that no one at YouTube has read Corporate Cancer yet. I’m skeptical myself, because that’s the date the new terms of use come into effect and there is no particular reason YouTube needs them in order to deplatform anyone.

But regardless, this would be a good time to subscribe to Unauthorized.

Wranglerstar, the well-known homesteader, is the latest addition to Unauthorized.TV! Nine of his latest videos are now available on the channel, with two more already on the way.

• Crushing
• Eureka! I found gold on the homestead!
• Canning with Mrs. Wranglerstar
• Emergency equipment for your home
• A better way to restore leather
• Is the MK-18 the perfect home defense AR?
• Simple battery hack could save your life
• Chainsaw chaps may have a fatal flaw
• They took away my chainsaw

If you’re a fan of Wranglerstar and would like to support him, you can subscribe to his monthly Unauthorized subscription. Definitely check out the battery hack; it is rather ingenious and could prove very useful for anyone who ever needs to start a fire.

In other UATV news, the problem with the Home page was the result of my deleting some superfluous categories that were linked to the page. That has been corrected; Garden now connects to David the Good’s video catalog while Survive connects to Wranglerstar’s new catalog. We’re told the Roku and Android apps should be approved any day now; once that happens we will let you know.

The Legend Chuck Dixon is back with two new Unauthorized videos, one for subscribers and one for everyone. Note that Blue is for subscribers-only and Red is free for everyone.

Somehow, UATV was left out of consideration in The Great Streaming Battle:

Titans of media and technology are wagering billions that consumers will pay them a monthly fee to stream TV and movies over the internet. Walt Disney Co. DIS 3.76{7920286a66e4f1f0530b37c9dd80de53efff9c5d61ddedf8a26aff588199c419} is launching a $6.99-a-month service next week, following Apple Inc.’s entry earlier this month. AT&T Inc. T -0.10{7920286a66e4f1f0530b37c9dd80de53efff9c5d61ddedf8a26aff588199c419} and Comcast Corp. CMCSA 1.10{7920286a66e4f1f0530b37c9dd80de53efff9c5d61ddedf8a26aff588199c419} ’s NBCUniversal next year will mount their own challenges to streaming juggernaut Netflix Inc.

The combatants are fighting on the same battlefield, all seeking to lure in subscribers, but they have radically different motivations—and some have far more at stake than others.

Legacy giants like Disney and AT&T’s WarnerMedia are racing to reinvent their core media business, which is under assault as consumers turn away from traditional broadcast and cable TV. For them, selling streaming subscriptions to consumers has to work—and has to be profitable. For Apple, while streaming can advance its business, failure is an option.

Consumers will have choices to make as new entrants join the fray: Americans are willing to spend an average of $44 monthly on streaming video and subscribe to an average of 3.6 services, according to a survey of over 2,000 people in recent days by The Wall Street Journal and the Harris Poll. That is up roughly $14 from what most people pay now.

But with so many existing players already in the market—Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, CBS All Access and ESPN+, among others—not everyone can emerge victorious. “This market is going to have to shake out — it doesn’t feel like all these players can continue to play this game forever,” said David Wertheimer, a former president of digital products at Fox Networks Group who is now a media and tech investor.

We’re not in the mix now. But in five years, who knows?

Owen Benjamin sits down for a discussion with Dr. E. Michael Jones. For Unauthorized subscribers only.

The Legend Chuck Dixon considers the implications of the head of Marvel Studios being given responsibility for Marvel Comics on Unauthorized. The video is free for everyone, not just subscribers.

An early and succinct report of last night’s show in Indiana:

Drove 3 hours to attend the Hobart, Indiana show yesterday.
It. Was. Awesome.

When people put in this kind of effort to attend a Big Bear show and afterwards conclude the effort was well worth it, you know he’s crushing it. On a not-entirely-unrelated note, if you haven’t picked up a Signed, Limited Edition Collector’s DVD with the Special, the Documentary, and additional footage yet, there are still 143 left.

I’m particularly pleased to hear this because the theatre in Hobart was the target of the most concentrated SJW attacks and it was the primary candidate for the Special.

SJWs tried to stir up a swarm in Sandpoint, Idaho to stop the Big Bear’s show. They failed completely:

Alt-right comedian Owen Benjamin comes to the Panida
· SEPTEMBER 26, 2019

By Zach Hagadone

Owen Benjamin is coming to the Panida Theater for a “Date Night Comedy Show” on Monday, Sept. 30. The 39-year-old New York native is also a classically trained pianist, but he’s bringing with him much more baggage than a microphone and sheet music.

Once an up-and-coming stand-up, in recent years he has been shunned by the entertainment industry, barred from venues around the country and established himself as a darling of the alt-right.

Asked if she was familiar with the mass of controversy trailing behind Benjamin, Panida Executive Director Patricia Walker said “just a little bit.”

“I didn’t come across whatever the hugely controversial stuff was,” she added, noting that Benjamin rented the theater — he was not booked by the Panida. “We don’t censor; we’re here for the entire community, but we don’t allow hate speech and he was all in favor of that. People can vote with their money.”

Pariah status didn’t come immediately to Benjamin, who landed a supporting role in The House Bunny in 2008. The same year, he and Christina Ricci — with whom he starred in the rom-com All’s Faire in Love — announced they were getting married, though the engagement ended after a few months. Benjamin appeared on Comedy Central Presents in 2010, acted in three seasons of the TBS comedy Sullivan & Son from 2012-2014, appeared on Inside Amy Schumer in 2014 and was a frequent guest on The Jay Leno Show and Fallon, among others. He has toured with Vince Vaughn and also had a part in the Adam Sandler flick Jack and Jill.

Yet, Benjamin’s mainstream success effectively came to an end in October 2017, when he called NPR host Jesse Thorn a “child abuser” for giving his 3-year-old the choice to identify as male or female.

Crushing and carrying on. One SJW after another. We don’t want their authorization. We don’t need it.
