About We The People News

We The People News is a US-based YouTube channel run by Don Matthews (@wethepeoplenews-donmatthews). It posts investigative and activist videos covering police encounters, First Amendment audits, courthouse incidents and government accountability, often as recorded field footage or live streams. The channel is small, with about 4,300 subscribers and a median of 250 views per video, though live streams and occasional documentaries reach several thousand views. Audience estimates suggest an English-speaking US viewership that is mostly adult and skews toward those following civil liberties and policing news; this is an estimate, not measured data.

The channel's brand work is limited to its own projects, including music releases and a documentary, and no sponsorship disclosures were found in recent uploads. Its rate estimate is $150 to $250 per sponsored video, which at a median of 250 views is far above the typical paid-ad CPM of $10 to $30 and should be weighed against that gap. Brands looking for a niche, politically charged audience for legal, civic or press-freedom messaging may find it useful, while mainstream advertisers should look elsewhere.
