Blake Lively Judge's Decision: Are YouTubers Real Journalists? | Ten Minutes of Truth #70

Want to know whether YOU qualify as a journalist… or if you need a million YouTube subscribers and a federal judge’s permission slip? In today’s episode, Steve and Bob break down the wild new legal battle that could reshape digital media, citizen journalism, YouTube reporting, and maybe the entire future of independent news. Plus, we promise: watching this episode will make you at least 37% smarter about the First Amendment—or at least give you something spicy to yell about on the internet. We dive into the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni drama, the Tampa judge demanding a YouTuber hand over his sources, and whether “Popcorned Planet” counts as journalism or just journalism-with-extra-butter. Then we swerve straight into high-octane political comedy, featuring Eric Swalwell posting the most unintentionally hilarious campaign video of 2025 and Katie Porter dropping swearwords like she’s trying to win a Democratic talent show. It’s media chaos, political cringe, and legal insanity—all delivered at the speed of a caffeinated stand-up comic. If you want truth, comedy, constitutional law, celebrity feuds, and a masterclass in how not to run for governor, this episode is your new favorite form of therapy. #journalism #YouTubeNews #IndependentMedia #BlakeLively #JustinBaldoni #PopcornedPlanet #FreePress #FirstAmendment #EricSwalwell #KatiePorter #Politics2025 #MediaAnalysis #DigitalJournalism #CourtCase #YouTuberNews #10MinutesOfTruth journalism, YouTube journalist, Popcorned Planet, Andy Signore, Blake Lively lawsuit, Justin Baldoni lawsuit, Eric Swalwell campaign, Katie Porter governor run, citizen journalism, First Amendment, source protection, judge Tampa ruling, YouTube politics, media analysis, political commentary, YouTube court case, independent journalism, YouTube legal case, political cringe, viral political video, comedy news commentary
