''The Young Turks'' (''TYT'') is an online American liberal/progressive political and social commentary program hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian; the show has an associated network of online shows and is owned by a company of the same name (The Young Turks LLC). TYT was founded in 2002 by Uygur as a talkshow on Sirius Satellite Radio. ''The Young Turks'' claims to be "the world's largest online news show"; YouTube video views for the TYT Network stood at a total of 2 billion as of July 2014.〔 The show offers internet-only video content via their YouTube channel, which in April 2012 averaged 750,000 views a day, and by November 2014 over 1,400,000 views a day.〔http://vidstatsx.com/TheYoungTurks/youtube-channel〕 The Young Turks also have a network of other affiliated shows on separate YouTube channels, known collectively as the TYT Network. From 2011 to 2013 a second show, called ''The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur'' aired on Current TV. After Current TV was acquired by Al Jazeera America, the TV show was discontinued. == History == ''The Young Turks'' as a show began when Cenk Uygur started a talk show similar to a public-access television cable-TV show he had done previously called ''The Young Turk''. With the help of friend Ben Mankiewicz (with whom he had previously worked), his childhood friend Dave Koller, and Jill Pike, he began ''The Young Turks'' as a radio show in 2002 on Sirius Satellite Radio.〔 The show's name derives from the English-language phrase "Young Turk", meaning a reformist or rebellious member of an institution, movement, or political party.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.tytnetwork.com/info/ )〕 In 2005 the show received attention for its 99-hour "Live On Air Filibuster," conducted during Congressional hearings for the Samuel Alito Supreme Court nomination. Hosts including Thom Hartmann and John Amato filled in so that the show's regulars could rest or have breaks. According to ''The Guardian'' ''The Young Turks'' is the first daily streaming online talk show, having started in that format in 2006.〔 In August 2007, Mankiewicz left the show to move to a new television show for TMZ.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.theyoungturks.com/story/2007/8/20/11398/6352/Diary/Ben-Mankiewicz-Has-Left-the-Building ) 〕 At roughly the same time, Pike left to pursue a job in Washington, D.C. Ana Kasparian, then an intern, was hired to do pop-culture segments. Mankiewicz eventually returned to ''The Young Turks'' as a regular correspondent. During the 2008 elections, the show developed close ties to Brave New Films. They aired ads for the film company and featured actors such as Robert Greenwald and Jonathan Kim. After Current TV was acquired by Al Jazeera America which discontinued the show in 2013, ''The Young Turks'' production staff relocated for a time to temporary studio quarters in Los Angeles at YouTube Space LA. They moved to new studio facilities in Los Angeles late 2013 and completed their new studio in June, 2015 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Young Turks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
