How to delete multiple pages in Safari history

The sign on for Youtube is corrupted on Safari on my MacBook Pro- I can sign on in Firefox, but not on Safari. I pulled up all of my history, but when I highlight it and try to "delete" it doesn't work. I tried holding "command" also, "control" - but it doesn't work. I have hundreds in the history, but I don't want to delete my entire history- ONLY youtube. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks-

You could try to edit the pList in a text edit application like TextEdit.

I'm not sure how to do that; and I'm not sure how that would remove it from my Safari history. Can you explain further?

Thanks

When you control - click a menu should pop open with several items including a delete option. Is that how you are selecting Delete?
