The Young Turks (TYT) is an independent Internet and cable news show hosted by Cenk Uygur.[5] It broadcasts The Young Turks on live web stream and YouTube, and The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur on television. The television show premiered on 5 December 2011 and airs daily on Current TV.[6][7] TYT was Sirius Satellite Radio's first original talk programming.[8] The Young Turks claims to be the first Internet TV news show[9] and the world's largest online news show. Video of the show is streamed daily on their website and is available as a podcast.[10][11] The show offers Internet-only video content via their YouTube channel, which in April 2012 averaged 750,000 views a day, and over 750 million views since December 2005. On 20 April 2013 The Young Turks announced that their YouTube channel had received over 1 billion video views.[12] The Young Turks offers a paid members-only Postgame Show, an Internet only wrap-up show.

On January 2, 2013, Al Jazeera purchased Current TV, along with its carriage agreements with cable providers currently offering the existing channel, and announced that it would scrap the channel along with its programming lineup with the intention of offering a Doha-based American-focussed news network, distancing itself from the channel's current progressive political commentary.[13] Later that day on the online show, Uygur clarified that Al Jazeera has not bought the TYT online show or its brand, both of which are independent of Current.[14] He also stated: "what will happen to the Current show is an interesting question, and one that I do not have an answer to,"[14] but that the show will continue "for at least another three months."[14]

History

Cenk Uygur

The Young Turks as a show began when Cenk Uygur started a talk show in the mould of 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, they began The Young Turks.

The show's name is derived from the English-language phrase "Young Turk", meaning a reformist or rebellious member of an institution, movement, or political party.[15]

In 2005, the show received attention for its 99-hour "Live On Air Filibuster" conducted during 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.[16]

It was announced on August 20, 2007, that Mankiewicz would leave the show and move to a new television show for TMZ.[17] At roughly the same time, Pike left to pursue a job in Washington, D.C., at which point then-intern Ana Kasparian was hired to do pop-culture segments.

During the 2008 elections, the show developed close ties to Brave New Films, often airing their ads and featuring personalities such as Robert Greenwald and Jonathan Kim.

Satellite radio

Prior to signing with Air America, the show was broadcast on Sirius Satellite Radio, on Sirius Left 143 and later 146, weekdays from 6-9PM ET, and re-aired on Sirius Talk Central 148 from 12-2PM ET. The Young Turks was the first show exclusively for Sirius Left to air not part of a syndication network.[citation needed] The show was exclusive to Sirius for several years. TYT was also carried by KFH (1330 AM/98.7 FM) in Wichita, Kansas from 7-9PM CT and webcast by RadioPower.org.

On February 2, 2009, TYT was removed from the broadcast schedule on XM/Sirius Channel 167, America Left, and their program was filled by an extra hour of Bill Press. The show returned to XM/Sirius on March 16, 2009. However in late 2010, TYT announced they would leave XM/Sirius radio through their Facebook page; their last show on XM/Sirius was on November 19, 2010.

Segments

Regular segments during the online show as well as the television show include:

  • TYT Supreme Court: Critical examination of parties involved in a news story; judgment is decided usually amongst Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Jayar Jackson, and Jesus Godoy (who serves as "Chief Justice").
  • Dave Koller's America
  • Turk of the Week (during the 2008–2009 seasons, and was brought back as Turk of the Year for 2012)
  • Elbow of the Day (TV broadcasts): Uygur calls out the person that he criticizes for their actions or comments. The subject's face is animated onto a wrestler's body and is then body slammed by a big elbow featuring the person or subject that they criticized about on its biceps.

Weeknight program on Current TV

On September 20, 2011, Current TV announced that TYT would launch a weeknight TV edition of the show at 7 pm EST on the network beginning sometime in the 4th quarter of 2011. The show joined Countdown with Keith Olbermann as the second news and opinion program on Current as the network continued to develop a new lineup of programming followed by The War Room with Jennifer Granholm in January. According to the show's website, the show is introduced as The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur to differentiate itself from the popular web series.[18]

On January 2, 2013, it was announced that Current TV had been sold to Al Jazeera, a Qatar based broadcaster.[19] As a result, TYT may be discontinued as Al Jazeera reorganizes the channel into its new Al Jazeera America network. However, Cenk Uygur confirmed on the online show that TYT will continue on Current TV until at least March 2013.[20]
