300,000 Reason TV Fans Can't Be Wrong! Subscribe Today!

Reason TV's YouTube channel has more subscribers than Cincinnati, Buffalo, or Salt Lake City has people!

I'm happy to announce that Reason TV, the Reason video platform that launched in October 2007 under the direction of Drew Carey, has just crossed 300,000 subscribers at YouTube.

Thanks to all who have subscribed. If you haven't subscribed yet, go see what you're missing. It only takes a minute and is absolutely free.

"Subscribers," explains YouTube,

are critical to your success on YouTube because they tend to spend more time watching your channel than viewers who are not subscribed. And on YouTube, strong watch time is critical. Channels and videos with higher watch time are more likely to turn up in search results and recommendations. So it's important to build a subscriber base who love your channel and keep coming back for more.

For users, the main benefit of subscribing is that you can opt in to receive notifications whenever we release a new video. You'll never miss another documentary, interview, Stossel on Reason video, Mostly Weekly episode, Soho Forum debate, or Remy parody again.

Some perspective on our audience:

• Reason TV has more YouTube subscribers than the cities of Cincinnati, Buffalo, and Little Rock have residents. (We also have less debt.)
• More people (2.8 million) have seen our most-watched YouTube video than live in Chicago (2.7 million).

• Reason TV has been a finalist for two National Magazine Awards, once for best video ("UPS vs. Fedex: Ultimate Whiteboard Remix") and once for multimedia package (Reason Saves Cleveland with Drew Carey).
• In December, Reason TV's YouTube channel passed the 100-million-view mark.
• Between our YouTube channel and Facebook page (like us!), Reason TV videos pull over 4 million views per month. And that's only counting "full" views, ones that are 30 seconds or longer.
• Reason TV barely has enough full-time staff to field a football or soccer team, and don't even get me started on 43-Man Squamish.

Reason's journalism is published by the libertarian nonprofit Reason Foundation. We're supported by generous readers, viewers, and listeners who believe that "Free Minds and Free Markets" will create a more peaceful, innovative, and fairer world in which individuals and the communities they form will be able to live rich, fulfilling lives. As Reason celebrates its 50th year, it's humbling—and inspiring—to measure how much our audience and our offerings have grown since 1968, when we were just an irregularly published magazine read by a few hundred people. Across our video, web, print, and podcast platforms, we stand ready, willing, and excited to keep bringing you the very best content about libertarian politics, culture, and ideas. To make a tax-deductible donation to Reason, go here.

26,000 more and you'll have more subscribers than Iceland has people.

[BestUsedCarSales]

So, what you're saying is we should have Iceland as the new destination for the Freedom Project?

[Hugh Akston]

Geothermal power, Bjork, and EVE Online, what's not to love?

[colorblindkid]

It's also a de facto ethnostate. I love American progs who point to Iceland as some sort of ideal country when it is one of the least diverse places on the planet, 95% of the population lives in one city, and the entire country has fewer people than Corpus Christi, Texas.

[Consigliere of the Dark Ones]

Icelanders needs apps to help people determine if the person they've just met is a relative or not to prevent dating relatives.

[BestUsedCarSales]

EVE Online is nothing to love or respect.

[Fist of Etiquette]

They're more inbred than the Ozarks. Pass.

[Consigliere of the Dark Ones]

Which means a bit influx of foreign libertarians would help Iceland's gene pool.

[Curt]

4.1 million more and Reason will have as many as some dude playing video games.

[BestUsedCarSales]

I wish we lived in a world that cared more about video games than politics. We lie to themselves if we believe this shit actually matters.

Glad to see you're suddenly so down with populism.

[Maddow's Fleshlight]

It's actually only about 50 and the rest is a bunch of sockpuppets.

[I can't even]

The majority is always wrong; the minority is rarely right.

Appeal to popularity?

Appeal to Consesus?

[Sometimes a Great Notion]

And that's only counting "full" views, ones that are 30 seconds or longer.

If that counts as a full view does it count for other things? Can I double the count of women I've slept with?

[This Machine Chips Fascists]

Only if you get past the air-kiss stage.

[Longtobefree]

65,853,516 people voted for Hillary Clinton, can they be wrong?
Right and wrong have nothing to do with the number of people who agree/believe with it.

[Quo Usque Tandem]

Surely Leonidas [as fancifully portrayed in leather speedo in the graphic "The 300"] is not an image for libertarianism? Beyond his alleged Molon Labe remark, I don't see that there was much egalitarian about him.
