For one, it means organizations don't have to host the videos on their own servers. Secondly, it helps push the content out from the host site to places like iTunes, Yahoo! and Google. It can also be embedded as individual videos and as a video player right on the news site. Thirdly, hosted online service like YouTube have a familiarity to them that users know. I think that news sites that host their own video players have more hurdles than those that use these services.
