Our mission is to explain news and politics in an impartial, efficient, and accessible way, balancing import and interest while fostering independent thought.
TLDR is a completely independent & privately owned media company that's not afraid to tackle the issues we think are most important. The channel is run by a small group of young people, with us hoping to pass on our enthusiasm for politics to other young people. We are primarily fan sourced with most of our funding coming from donations and ad revenue. No shady corporations, no one telling us what to say. We can't wait to grow further and help more people get informed. Help support us by subscribing, engaging and sharing. Thank

We've slightly extended the window for ordering Premium Edition copies of Too Long - so presuming they're still on the store when you visit you're all good to place an order
-
Imagine if this level of ethics and transparency still existed in mainstream media
-
Props to TLDR for always being transparent and impartial. A refreshing change from other media.

5:49 this has got to be your best worst spelling ever. Bless you, oh chaotic bastard, who KNEW you didn't know how to spell 'miscellaneous' and just took a wild swing at it anyway

I bought a yearly subscription to Patreon, knowing I wouldn't get any rewards from it. You guys rock and deserve the money. Happy to keep paying.

1:00. The moment you complained about mid-roll ads I got served oneš¤£

As a premium YouTube user I REALLY appreciate that you put the sponsorship ads at the end
-
You guys rock, the transparency is so refreshing
-
Very interesting. Bit sad that a news company being open about their finances is unusual. I also like your policy of paying all your staff. Keep it up guys. What you do is important.

Ahh yes TLDRās annual transparent-financial report. The only financial report I look forward to. Keep up the great work!!

I came across your channel through this videoācase studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm eager to see more in the future! Building wealth involves establishing routines, like consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for smart investments.

Nice to see a YouTube channel being open and honest. Iām sure a good chunk of people just think āloads of subscribers = loads of moneyā Glad to see youāre sticking to your morals and ethics
-
Phenomenal openness. Did have a moment of confusion debating whether "misculanious" was a typo or a regional term
-
You guys make quality content worth every dollar

I can honestly say that TLDR has changed my life. As a teen I'd always had one eye on politics but never strayed too far in that direction, now, as a 21 year old, I'm getting much more into it. TLDR doesn't only produce good content that got me more interested, it also acted as a catalyst for me to find other political podcasts and news sources, which is vital to exploring a problem-space as large and deviceive as politics. Thank you for all that you do. P.S. Would love to see more TLDR podcasts answering questions, and responding to feedback from the audience.

This transparency alone just made me subscribe to TooLong. Keep up the good work!

I am a premium Youtube subscriber, and it is the best money I have ever spent. Glad to see creators get a little more than if I was not. I also get You tube music for the subscription, which I use instead of Spotify.

A measly 2% profit margin?! The cost of fair, transparent, and unbiased journalism sure is a steep one.
-
Honestly I love you guys. You are my main sources of news and I know that you guys actually care about how you research and tell the new. Tysm for your work!
