Well do you know what really happened though?Nope, you get 50 million subs, you become a political figure regardless, what you put out there hurts/helps people and there should/could be backlash. I get what is going on, and I understand those that dont agree with me.
I guess the WSJ guys watched one video with the offensive joke in it (and I can see backlash from it even though it was clearly a joke, mocking Fiverr).
But that wasn't enough to make a story for these "journalists", so they sifted through his videos to find completely out of context footage they could string together to form the narrative that they wanted. That is not journalism....and normally I wouldn't care but I used to think of WSJ as a legit news outlet.
Now I am very skeptical of them. Similar to any proven trash tabloid media outlet.
The WSJ in this case was approaching National Enquirer levels of journalism.
Maybe next month they will have something about Sasquatch on the front page.
