YouTube claims to be the digital way to "Broadcast Yourself". Though Facebook could probably claim to have a similar function, "Broadcast" aptly describes the similarities between YouTube and traditional Media Broadcast Outlets like TV and the Radio.

The most successful YouTube users are the ones that either post popular media content or post videos that resemble popular media.

YouTube reflects the cycle of influence between Society and Media Corporations. Media at once creates and reflects social norms.
