From the ashes of traditional forms of journalism, emerged digital journalism. A movement of primarily young people to flatten the presentation of news. The most famous example of youtube journalism is the "Macaca Incident." During the 2006 midterm election, Senator George Allen referred to a young man of Indian descent as a "Macaca." Many liberal press junkets believed that video that the Indian man had taped was true and that Allen had actually used the racial epithet. The video was placed on the popular website, youtube.com. | From the ashes of traditional forms of journalism, emerged digital journalism.
