The Young Turks (TYT) is an American populist-left-leaning[6][7][8][9][10] news commentary show live streamed on social media platforms YouTube and Twitch. It additionally appears on selected television channels. TYT serves as the flagship program of the TYT Network, a multi-channel network of associated web series focusing on news and current events. TYT covers American politics, wars and conflicts in the Middle East, sports, and a wide array of other topics.[11][12] The program was created by Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz and Dave Koller. Uygur is Turkish-American and named the program after the Young Turks movement of the 20th century. Currently co-hosted by Uygur and Ana Kasparian,[13] it is also often accompanied by various other in-studio contributors. The Young Turks began as a radio program that premiered on February 14, 2002, on Sirius Satellite Radio before launching a web series component in 2005 on YouTube, and then later Twitch; at some point it was also carried on Air America.[citation needed]

In addition to being carried on YouTube and Twitch, it is also currently available on Amazon Prime Direct, iTunes, Hulu, Roku, and on social media platforms Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.[14][15] It has spawned two spin-off television series, one that aired on Current TV[16] from 2011 to 2013 and a second that debuted on Fusion in 2016 as a limited-run program developed to cover the 2016 United States presidential election. The Young Turks also served as the subject of a documentary, entitled Mad as Hell, which was released in 2014.[17] The network also has a channel on YouTube TV.[14] For most of its existence TYT relied on small grassroots financial contributions from its viewership to sustain itself as an independent news organization.[18] However, in 2017 TYT sought to expand its media network and hire more staff through various venture capital fundraising efforts that raised $20 million.[19][20]

The Young Turks is the second longest-running online news and politics talk show (after the Alex Jones Show started 1999).[11][21][22][23]
