Behind the scenes: Preparing for the Presidential YouTube Interview

Though we couldn't film from within the White House, we did take a few behind-the-scenes clips of our preparation leading up to our YouTube interview this week with President Obama.

i was hoping this would show the team choosing to ignore some of the most requested questions, but then i recalled that this is in fact censortube

When will you post the video about how you censored the most popular questions?

Its one thing to ignore the three most popular questions... but then to say, in this little Behind the Scenes video, "some of them we might not have expected but they were voted to the top so we're going to use them." Are you kidding?

Google moderator for the win?

Yah it sure does make a convenient way to ignore people. Another useful thing is that it doesn't give actual vote counts for items. The thumbs up or down bars is a pretty good way to hide the actual voting data.

It also keeps no track of moderator actions like moving questions around to put them into other categories they don't belong in. It certainly doesn't tell you when the moderators adjust the vote counts for items either. Very convenient!

Really transparent way to control the so called "public" opinion if you ask me. A real win!

So when are you gonna address the complaints of the citizens about censoring the top questions? This is "citizentube" right? If you ever hold another one of these there will be even more marijuana related questions that dominate all subjects. In the long run, this gutless move will probably help the legalization movement. Thanks for creating even stronger support for cannabis legalization CENSORTUBE.

You seem to have glossed over the part where you changed all the data and threw a bunch of questions out. You just go straight from when voting started to when you had all the questions decided on.
