Carlos Maza

Carlos Manuel Maza (born April 9, 1988) is an American journalist and video producer who started the Vox series Strikethrough.

[7][8] At Media Matters, he was also the LGBT Program Director, focusing on combating misinformation and working for LGBTQ equality.

[1][10] In June 2019, YouTube investigated conservative commentator Steven Crowder for repeatedly using racist and homophobic slurs against Maza over the course of multiple years in videos reacting to Strikethrough.

[23][24] In an interview with Business Insider, Maza voiced his dissatisfaction with YouTube while also stating that he "might as well flood its airwaves with leftist propaganda" by returning to the platform as an independent creator.

Kern reviewed that Maza's career experience allows him to combine "professionalism" with "casualness" and that his conclusions to videos excel.
