"The Mayor's Afraid of You Tube"

On Friday, hours after New York authorities made a last-minute decision NOT to clear #OccupyWallStreet protesters from Liberty Plaza, Michael Moore said this to MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell (begin 2:54 for context):
"One cop down there actually today. I asked...'Why don't you think the eviction happened?' And he said, 'Cause the Mayor's afraid of You Tube.'...The power of the new media, the media that's in the hands of the people -- that those in charge are afraid of what could possibly go out."
