Seems like they're changing their opinions on some of their older view points and now some of their fans are turning against them.

Hated them when they started. Hate them now. Something about their cadence, personalities, and poor editing are like nails on a chalkboard. Theyre so smug and self serving with nothing to back it up, imo.

Gotcha. I used to watch them, but then they went really off the rails, imo, but now they seem to be doing a double take on some of their view points. I wasn't watching them, I was watching others comment on them, but now I've started to watch them again.

I really don't know how to answer this. That seems like something from your own point of view. I don't watch Fox, so I don't know what sort of fashion they're into.

Here are three videos that got me watching them again -

I watched the first one where shes constantly looking down at her script. A teleprompter would do them wonders.

No problem. They could also do with some very light music in the background. The silence aside from their voices gets pretty noticeably on in their videos.

Her delivery of And mannnn, has it been a disaster. in the early part of the video also felt fake as could be.

Its also funny that they keep using young in their name when Ana is 37 and Cenk (the one I cannot stand the most) is 54

I went from vaguely being aware of Ana Kasparian's existence to me disliking her because she's adopted some really shit views lately.

Cenk I started the same, however after hearing 2 interviews with him that dude is insufferably into himself and thinking he's the smartest guy in the room. Both times he started out fine and acceptable, eventually he flips that.

Not to mention seems to be supporting Trump a lot, or at least defending him every chance she gets.

Arrogant, narcassistic, egotistical. I mean many things describe him.

I dunno what is causing them to become more right-wing lately, but it is a massive turn off for sure. It seems they are liking Trump much more than they hate Biden, which is sus. Plus some of their new gimmicks they are doing has gotten annoying, such as dividing up videos, placing an ad at some random spot in the video (usually interrupting it) when they have one at the end. I haven't watched them regularly for a while now.

You know how people really hate progressives? It's because of people like the young turks, they have no solutions other than complaining while jerking each other off about how smart they are, their off shoots aren't much better either like the damage report, the dude with the christmas lights had a take where he's not a fan of taking anyone's money just because of regulations and new rules because it's unfair, whatever means they used even if unethical they still made their money the legal way so just taking it away by changing the rules isn't something he's down with was his opinion, then there was some lady that said that sports like basketball are modern day slavery like what the hell?

If i have to tolerate progressive news media the young turks is dead last, through a lot of them have things I don't like about them
Brian Tyler Cohen for example is way too kind to the left he never calls them out when they fuck up
Farron Cousins wants people like Snowden and Assange pardoned because even through both did some shit things to him they're what journalists and news media should be, report the story damn even if it has consequences like people getting killed because your story outed them
Jesse Dollemore got hyper upset at Jon Stewart for calling Biden old and in his words "both sidsing" the media's age concerns with Biden even through he doesn't like it, Biden's age IS a concern for voters
Meidastouch network is another one, they seem less interested in the left and more interested in trying to humanize republicans, dude recently had that neocon warmonger John Bolton on where he trashes Trump as stupid as hell
Some More News tries way too hard to be funny which causes their videos to be way longer than they should be.
I've never watched Dave Packman but he sounds like one of those people who can never just let a clip play out and discuss it after it's over, he constantly has to pause it to give his little "takes"
Sam Seeder is another kind of circlejerk of fart huffing

They used to be proud hardcore progressive but now they are starting to moderate their views, anna especially...

They probably see the walls closing in on the democrats this year and want to avoid being clowned like they were in 2016...

I like how their views have swung towards the middle but the constant coverage of Trump and his bagillionth scandel thats for sure going to land him in jail this time we promise is just too off putting for them to be taken seriously.

Im a liberal but they went way too far left, but now theyre getting back to more of the middle. What got me watching again was Anna dunking on everyone that hates her now because she wants criminals locked up and to stop funding holy wars. But the woke mob are trying to get her canceled now because if you disagree with one thing youre alt-right. Look at this topic talking about her, rancid takes,. Which takes?

I posted three videos earlier in the topic
