I'm Poppy Harlow and you're watching Pew News.
[ayy finally]
The most News News site of all time.
*Best news intro*
First of...
MERCH
Okay?
MERCH
What? DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?
There is new MERCH.
What are you doing?
Now I'm Poppy Harlow *noshit*
and I'm not supposed to give my own opinion
but I'm gonna make an exception and say that this is THE HOTTEST MERCH.
He brought back the Cyka Blyat shirt-hat-thing. [buys]
*POP*
*Please Buy Merch*
*Pewds needs money. He always get D-monetized*
We really have just two news I want to talk about, there hasn't been that much -
that I care about.
The first one is about FfoRtNiTe. Everyone's favourite game...
Apparently now parents are paying tutors for teaching their kids to become better at
Fortnite.
*cute skrrata from god *
These scrubs...
This is what happens when you birth beta
Beta children that needs help (grammar) to become better.
PATHETIC
Really what they should be doing...
is giving their children. [???]
According to the article that originated from -
The Wall Street Journal *oh the memories*
There's pressure not to just play it
but to be really good at it [lol not really]
*professional Newsmaker burping everybody*
Do they not know that all they gotta do
to be good at the game is-
you just need to-
you don't need to learn the game.
You just gotta be exTREMLY good at Photoshop, okay? There you go everybody.
Problem solved.
You don't have to pay 20 bucks an hour
to teach your kids
'Cause apparently that's what's happening. You can go to
this website called Gamer Sensei.
If you want to improving games, I mean fair enough.
I can't really hate on that.
I just find it funny that parents think
it's somehow required to give their children this so that they can seem
cooler or fit in you know?
BACK IN MY DAY
I couldn't get my parents to buy me
anything gaming related so HEY
props to you parents.
I guess I don't know.
This parent called Nick Menon says has been paying coaches to tutor his son.
Noble said the 12 year old's gone from struggling in the game to throwing down
10 to 20 wins
[Not that much...]
DAMN son!
[PEWS IT'S NOT THAT MUCH COME ON]
You know when when I was a child
World of Warcraft was the game that everyone played
I remember if you weren't playing World of Warcraft
You weren't really part of that the social group or whatever
Or Tibia it was actually Tibia but regardless there
wasn't really any requirement for you to be good at the game
I guess now that big game is fortnite.
Kids want to be good at it
And seem better than they are it's an interesting phenomenon a lot of people
are justifying this as: "oh I can train my child so that they can become pro"
Yes because fortnite will definitely be relevant in another couple years
That seems like a great investment [lol no]
it's not just social exclusion.
That is causing some parents to turn to tutors
*9yrs old* :"You are not good at Fortnite you can't hang with us"
Jimmy comes back couple lessons later
Throwing down 10 or 20 wins.
Gets all the women
Saves the day
Jimmy is a legend
*POP*
One collegiate eSports club called Tesla announced this year it would offer
Over 1 million in scholarships and prizes to student competing in
Six different video games
This reminds me of. I think in Japan they have like Youtube schools
because it's because it's such a popular phenomenon to be a youtuber in Japan
And it's not like anyone that finished these schools have become any YouTuber
This is one of those useless things you could get into that won't
lead up to anything I'm not saying that that's necessarily the case here
but it does sound fairly familiar it's also interesting because I reflected myself a
couple days ago on how the approach to YouTube has shifted tremendously
When I started I mean when Pewdiepie started YouTube it was eight years ago I felt
like I was the Biggest Loser ever even just talking alone in a room in front of
a camera that was just unheard of even just talking into a microphone alone on
camera it was just weird you wouldn't do that you were a weirdo if you did it
*Pop*
*Pew Pew Pew Pew Pew*
Surprise surprise there's another news article about PewDiePie
Tagged W T F influencers.
What did he do this time huh can't even go a week
PewDiePie makes fake claims over sponsored videos.
Posted byDdigiday who claims to be
About authority, insight and honesty
*Type X for Doubt*
So they're basically saying that
I'm claiming to be sponsored by Volvo when really I wasn't and saying that I make
fake claims over sponsored videos. I love how they don't allow comments on the
article so the only way to really find out what people think and I think it's
pretty unanimous and this is a how do I not swear it's a bad story
The video that they are referring to is me playing PUBG I feel like at this point I need
to just stop replying because the more I reply then more inevitably I'm going to
get more hit pieces like this because it just reinforces that I'm against the
media and therefore I'm an villain in the media's I and I just gonna keep on
going and going and these will just appear but this is this one is just too
funny and not to bring up
it's me playing pubg driving around in a car
*Sponsored by Volvo*
That's it. Surprise surprise Volvo the car manufacturing company
Did not pay me to play PUBG to drive around in a car that's not even a Volvo
It's a dacia. It's a big surprise big shocker. I know.
So what this website decided to do
instead of having a brain was well it says in the title is sponsored by Volvo
so we're gonna reach out to Volvo and ask them
*Curb my pasta*
And guess what they said
No it isn't. Surprise. Big surprise everyone.
It's not sponsored by Volvo
That video wasn't actually sponsored by Volvo according to a Volvo spokesperson
First paragraph. Cool alright cool. This seemed like a great article.
But it keeps going. Volvo was unaware of this association with PewDiePie
They're not associated. It's a joke. I'm driving around killing people with a car
It's a joke. It's a joke why do I have to spell it out do I have to say it every time I
know it's like I meme that I always go it's a joke but this is taking it to
next level so they reached out to Volvo and then reached out to me as well
I saw the email and I thought that is the dumbest thing they cannot be serious
they cannot be seriously writing an article about this so I changed the
title to sponsored by Saab so what do they do they reach out to Saab as well
on August 3rd more evidence popped up to indicate Volvo did not
sponsor the video they're really living up to the insight and the honesty here
definitely good doing a good job they found more evidence guys that this was
not actually sponsored after do today's email to PewDiePie's channel the title
was changed to sponsored by Saab and they actually they reach out to Saab as well
They reach out
Why? Why? Why? Did you reach out to Saab as well
Are you that *Dumb*
You can't there's no way you're not stupid. Saab responded we do not have a
sponsor relationship with him and had no knowledge of that YouTube video prior your email
a Saab spokesperson emailed.
They reached out to Saab as well.
So by their logic is that he said that the video was sponsored by Volvo for a year
and then all the sudden and it's not sponsored by Volvo and then all the
sudden a year after it gets changed to sponsored by Saab so we better make sure
to reach out to Saab to make sure for more evidence that it isn't actually
sponsored by Saab.
*Meme Review X Pew News*
it's pretty clear that they're not that stupid
Like no one is this dumb. That's the thing.It's clear they're pretending to be dumb just so
that they can go around and ask brands like is it true is it true so what
they're implying in this article here is saying that advertisers often take their
cues from other advertisers in the decision whether to work with an
influencer, Pewdipie may have thought that other advertisers would see the
volvo video as a sign that the controversy is over so there's basically
implying that this wasn't just a joke this was me trying to make so that
branch would pay me money tricking people into this video was
actually sponsored by Volvo so that I could make more money I'm just saying
what they think this is I I know it's ridiculous so they can reach
out to a bunch of brands that I work with it's just it's basically another
way to hurt my brand they just want people to know that
Hey PewDiePie is a controversial youtuber you shouldn't be working with him and
I agreed like if you if you're a company and you're not aware of who I am you shouldn't be
working with me either. I'm not trying to trick people into
paying me I want to have genuine good relationships with brands
Luckily I'm not dependent on working with brands to do what I do but when videos get
Demonetize which does happen so it's a nice way to counter that I always pick
brands that I know that you guys will enjoy as well what will make an
entertaining video or a product that you might be interested in the chairs for
example is a great example because we did the promotion just at probably the
worst time ever they took a leap to work with me and he turned out great it was a
great promotion and obviously the whole meme happened and it was just a really
successful thing and fans loved it too it was great for the company and that's
the thing I want people to know yes I am a controversial figure I don't care
about working with you if you don't know who I am. So this article is just a way
to as dumb as it is this is a way to basically try and hurt me even more and
these articles just keep coming and they keep coming and it's just so pity and
it's so desperate and it's so reaching and it just ruins the credibility of
your website. I feel like there's a such a disconnect between the corporate world
and the culture on the internet and that's why there's a disconnect
between what my brand is and how a lot of bigger corporations perceive it a lot
of times the brands that a lot of big companies love all the big youtuber
names that appear in the in the rewind or whatever those are the type of brands
that most people on the internet actually don't respect
It seems like their worlds are completely upside-down the more you appeal to the corporate
culture the less respected you are on the internet for being dishonest because
people are smart enough to see through it I don't know I kind of went off on a
tangent didn't I. I genuinely don't want to pick fights with the media like I'm
It's tiresome I'd be lying if I said that you know obviously it's fun to
laugh at these articles but when they come in all the time it's annoying it's
frustrating because I know people don't understand it most of it probably it's
because of me I don't want to pay myself as a victim or anything because I know a
lot of it is self-inflicted but I do think I get a lot more
SHATT
Than I deserve and I think this article is it
An example of that because anyone with the brain were just understand this was
clearly a joke and especially it was a joke that could not hurt anyone it's not
an offensive joke it's just a joke what do you think let me know leave like if
you enjoyed this video subscribe if you haven't already. I upload of videos every
single day check out the new merch it's a great way to support the channel we
