YouTube Starts Investigation Into Right-Wing Homophobe for Harassing Gay Journalist

YouTube is investigating right-wing vlogger Steven Crowder for harassing gay Vox Media journalist Carlos Maza after Carlos posted a tweet blasting YouTube for ignoring Steven’s years of targeted harassment.

Carlos’s tweets included a video compilation of Steven’s abuse in which he calls Carlos himself “a tranny.” He also says Carlos eats “a lot of d*cks” and “sashays to his next Pride parade.”

If you watched Carlos’s YouTube content, Steven’s insults have nothing to do with Carlos’s videos, which usually critique conservative media and social media abuse.

“Thanks so much for outlining all of this–we’re looking into it further,” YouTube responded. “Sending you a DM now.”

We’ll see what happens with the investigation.
