坚克•尤格

    秉持进步主义信念的政治评论员坚克•尤格是《少壮派》（The Young Turks）栏目的主持人。这一栏目自称是“全球最大的在线新闻秀”。它以TYT的简称为人所知，于2002年在天狼星卫星广播推出，但YouTube为它提供了一个积聚人气的平台。到2014年7月，该栏目在YouTube的点击数已经超过20亿次。

    就在他爆红的3年前，主持人基思•欧尔柏曼的突然离职使得MSNBC有线电视网不得不匆忙地重新安排各档节目的播出时间。尤格在YouTube的巨大人气给该公司留下了深刻印象，随即邀请他邀请填补艾德•舒尔茨的节目时段。这种情形只持续了6个月，他的时间段随后被派给了阿尔•夏普顿牧师，尤格继续在Current TV电视台主持了“少壮派”两年时间。他也是许多政治谈话节目的嘉宾，还是政治评论博客《每日科斯》、《赫芬顿邮报》和政治家网的供稿人。

    Cenk Uygur

    Progressive political commentator Cenk Uygur is the host of “The Young Turks,” which calls itself “the largest online news show in the world.” Known simply as “TYT” for short, it started in 2002 on Sirius Satellite Radio, but YouTube put it on the map and provided it with 2 billion views by the time July 2014 rolled around.

    Three years prior to that, the MSNBC network was impressed enough with Uygur’s YouTube popularity tooffer him a spot vacated by Ed Schultz when the departure of Keith Olbermann led to a frantic re-shuffling of time slots. The stint lasted only six months, and his slot was given to the Reverend Al Sharpton. From there he went on to host “The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur” on Current TV for two years. He is still a frequent guest on numerous political talk shows, and is a contributor to Daily Kos, The Huffington Post and Politico.
