Outrage Over Child-Fight Videos on YouTube

Streetfighting Kids on YouTube
YouTube is more than just an outlet for wannabe comedians, light saber freak outs, and web cam footage of scantily-clad ladies. According to the BBC investigative journalism program 'Panorama', it is also home to exceedingly violent videos featuring children.

Videos include children engaged in fist fights, a child who slams a hand gun against a police car, and another child who jumps up and down on a police vehicle, shattering the windshield. In response, YouTube says that it relies on its users to flag offensive and violent content, and that it regularly removes such videos.

The police argue that YouTube and Google should be filtering this material before it is posted, but YouTube claims that this would be censorship and is not the role of a private company.
