Same as anything else.
Like there's Cody Johnston (some.more news), who was an editor for Cracked decades ago when it was one of the top websites in the world before even Facebook was live.
He does podcasts, and talks about news and obviously politics with an election coming up.
And others where they are informed and provide insight to shit that's happening. Those are fine.
Then there's people making entertainment videos and their topic is politics they're worthless.
Like science. Neil Degrasi Tyson makes a lot of youtube videos these days, and so does PBS.
Comparing them to a YouTuber who says airplanes turn the frog gay isn't really sensical even tho both talk about "science".
Usually just looking at the title and thumbnail is enough to tell what kind of video it will be.
