When UnitedHealth bought a medical center in Oregon, it shifted the focus to “money, efficiency & quotas.” Doctors quit en masse.Now Oregon wants to ban corp...
15min is a reasonable amount of time for a video describing the full implications of the prosecutions actions. As well as how the case has tangibly changed policy.
I think I have finally found a generation gap that I think is real; old people like me would rather read than watch. A lot of my students would rather watch than read.
This was basically the length and quality of a 60 Minutes segment. I’m glad someone is doing good video journalism in the US. It’s a format that has been dying over the past few decades, and now the remaining institutions are under attack in the states.
Hi! Welcome to my video. In this video we will talk about what is in the title. Let’s talk a bit more about what I’m going to talk about in this video. I’ve had a long day, so let me sit down and drink a cup of coffee while I talk about what I’m going to talk about in this video. Oh look! My cat. My cat’s name is ‘succinct’. Get it? ‘succinct’. It means getting straight to the point.

Huh? Oh, yeah. The title of this video. The title of this video is “What happened in my life today”. In reality, not much.
Thanks for watching!
Why post a 14 minute video for what is probably a 3 minute read?
Why post a video in the video community?
If you came here to read you’re in the wrong place.
For the same reason I’d attend a meeting and complain afterwards that it could’ve been an email, despite knowing that I was going into a meeting.
I think it’s reasonable to expect the video formats to only be used when it’s a good medium for communicating whatever it’s communicating.
I mean some people prefer watching videos than reading articles, I think it’s fair to post a video and it’s fair for you to not prefer it as well.

Grow an attention span
People who post articles provide a summary of the article. So maybe you should post a video summarizing the video you think we should watch?
Is it ok if I post another, shorter video as the summary?
I’m just going to block you instead
Seems like a good use of a 14min to me. More Perfect wasn’t burying the lead in this video at all.
FYI the phrase is “burying the lede”.

I can appreciate that. But a 60 Minutes segment is about a four minute read.
