YouTube changed its name on Twitter after Bernie Sanders directed viewers to 'The YouTube' during the Democratic debate
During the debate, Sanders encouraged viewers to go to "the YouTube" to check out Biden's past remarks on Social Security.
Social media users were quick to point out the phrasing quirk, and YouTube capitalized on it by quickly changing its Twitter name to "The YouTube."Bernie Sanders' phrasing choice for referring to YouTube during Sunday night's Democratic debate was quick to illicit reactions from internet users — and YouTube itself.
Sanders and Joe Biden faced off in the first one-on-one debate of the cycle on Sunday. During the debate, Sanders challenged Biden's record on Social Security, and encouraged viewers to "go to the YouTube" for video proof. Viewers were quick to latch onto the odd phrasing: YouTube, as well as popular social networks like Facebook and TikTok, isn't frequently preceded by "the," although it's used ahead of online-related terms like "the internet."
Sanders' comment at the debate was also immediately followed with a tweet from the Vermont senator's Twitter account
