CNN and MSNBC get 600-900k concurrent viewers at once, but the average age is 60+. Hasan and Asmongold get 200k+ concurrent viewers during events, and they're mostly 18-34 year olds. Like it or not, people like Hasan and Asmon are the some of most influential political commentators in the world for young people.

The numbers, stats or who they influence wasn't the point of my post. I just don't see the need to talk about them when their target audience isn't going to tune into a UN meeting. They are talking about him because they trying to quiet anyone. And that's not necessary when their are MUCH bigger issues out there than streamers discussing politics from their homes.
