Whats it rating and how badly will it get abused?
Imagine a youtube video of President Obama's October 2nd 2002 speech on Iraq policy (not making this up, there is one...)
Or there's a classic nuclear winter / climate change-ish interview with Dr Carl Sagan right before he died in the early 90s.
Or any video that presents atheism or islam in a non-negative light. Say, a BBC interview with Richard Dawkins WRT his biographical book.
I suspect they'll be more than a little political gaming going on here, although theoretically a kid doing schoolwork could stumble upon them as a legitimate primary(ish) source.
