All that matters is that he is on the ground reporting in an honest, non partizan and tries to tell both sides of the story . Writing articles does not suddenly give you legitimacy. I mean the bbc reported the berkely free speech rally/protest as a protest about Trumps taxes ffs.
And using your logic the WSJ reporters who tried to paint Pewdiepie as a nazi are legitimate just because they have written articles. Or the Journalists from the daily mail who accused Joerg Sprave of making instructional videos for terrorists. There are numerous examples of reporters who write articles who are not legitimate.
Jordan Charitan of TYT provided the best on the ground coverage of the stnading rock protests. He was there for weeks living with the protesters and streamed every day giving people a much more clear picture of what was happening on the ground than the main stream media did. It is not his writing of articles that suddenly make him legitimate.
Poole is also independent so he has no corporate interests like MSNBC , Fox or CNN. Old Media is dying and youtube is a brilliant way to reach a bigger audience , people like Poole are gaining views and subscribers every day whilst newspapers and traditional tv news shows are on the decline. And they should all be scrutinized as well im sure there are alot of dishonest reporters on youtube as well.
People should be judged on their merits and integrity , not what method they choose to get their message out.
But you know all this. Your just trying to find ways to discredit Poole because he is saying some stuff you dont like and challenging your narrative.
