The New York times talks about it: Disney has cut ties with PewDiePie. YouTube has distanced itslef after he posted anti-Semitic imagery online. The Wall Street Journal researched and make a compilation video of all the "anti-Semitic" jokes he has made. Because of this video, Disney which owns the MCM company PewDiePie works for, Disney severed ties with him. 53 millions subscribers, almost 15 billion views. It shines a huge spotlight on the entire YouTube platform. PewDiePie represents the platform. Casey knows PewDiePie, he spent some time with him and he doesn't think he has a hateful bone in his body. He is not anti-Semitic. But with great power comes great responsibility. When you have 53 million subscribers you have to be careful with your audience, not everybody will interpret what you are doing the way it is supposed to ben interpreted.
