WOW, it really does explain a lot about what's gone wrong with YouTube's management culture when the CEO of the most powerful video social network sounds more like a gossipy school girl than a top level executive...
She is asked "Is there a sexism problem in Silicon Valley today?" Her convoluted answer suggests there definitely is a problem, especially as she is "sexistly" and constantly interrupted via "micro-aggression" type behavior. But as for Google (and certainly for YouTube as well), there is clearly no problem and everything is very fair!
Mark Dice also provides an excellent summary and breakdown of the Wojcicki "interview":
And while many of our top videos were deemed too perverse and "advertiser unfriendly" to even remain on YouTube, let alone remain monetized (as described here), apparently Wojcicki has no problem supporting "super-advertiser friendly" videos such as this one by Rachel Bloom, since perhaps they're all besties who, "like", think exactly the same way, with, "like", all the "correct" political views. And in that case, you can pretty much get away with anything on YouTube (nsfw video warning)...
Rachel Bloom, "F#$@ Me, Ray Bradbury", ~4 million views:
Or perhaps I'm simply missing the point, and this is all part of the latest trend of "female empowerment", along with wearing a hijab?
I also lost count at the number of times Susan Wojcicki said "like". As one person commented on the video, “No wonder people interrupt her. She talks like a gossiping high school student!”
Most Memorable Quote from the Interview:
"Like, do not, like, tell me, like, what to do, like, that is, like, a micro-aggression!" - Susan Wojcicki, CEO YouTube
Now if we can just figure out a viable way to monetize older content (including music, videos, etc) with steem and/or steemit... seems we're getting sooo close to potentially turning this into "the next big thing"!
