  • Pewdepie is a big old meanie, Logan Paul...

  • defends himself and much more information coming up.

  • I'm Poppy Harlow and you're watching pew news (weird pop thing)

  • Good Evening. I'm poppy Harlow you're watching pew news the most

  • ...new site. As you may have heard PewDiePie got into trouble in the media recently (clears throat)

  • I hate that Guy

  • I don't even care that it was a deep-fried meme.

  • The fact that he posted it speaks volumes.

  • I feel like I'm probably better off not talking about this, but I want to share my thoughts. I didn't know much about Demi I...

  • I've only really just played her video game a few years ago, and I realized that...uh..

  • It's for kids. She clearly has a very very young audience me to see that she's messing with drugs...

  • I just thought what an idiot. I'm not the greatest role model, but at least I've never done anything

  • Straight-out illegal, so I thought well, you know, it's just fun to make- fine to just make fun of it and I realized now

  • No, no, it wasn't because a lot of people seem to doubt my sincerity

  • I guess in some way. Just to give context it was 5 a.m. in the morning. Sometimes my dogs wake me up really early and uhh

  • This has nothing to do with anything.

  • Basically, I saw the meme it made me laugh and I posted it on like Twitter. I went to sleep two hours.

  • I woke up and um...

  • A lot of people were really upset to be honest. I didn't get it. I didn't get it at all.

  • I'm not the one doing drugs. What the heck did I do?

  • The meme is so ironic and so stupid talking about like like a boss. I was like

  • She's still alive. What's the problem if anything, this is a way to snap out of it like yeah, you were an idiot.

  • So the fact that people came after me, I was just I was really trying to understand why so I read up on addiction

  • I try to decipher in between the 'you should burn in fire'

  • messages cause- also a lot of people are saying that I was making fun of mental health.

  • Which no that wasn't the case at all. I was making fun of Demi and her poor choices.

  • Cause a lot of people were like 'Well you talked about mental help a few days ago in a video. You're such a hypocrite'

  • I wasn't doing that. I was making fun of Demi for her poor decision. I realized and I learned that

  • ostracizing and shaming is the last thing an addict needs to recover cause that's just going to make them more likely to

  • Relapse and fall back into that behavior. What an addict needs is support and help from

  • friends and family and I think the public as well. And I also learned that this is her second time

  • She's dealt with drugs. I just thought I'm really just kicking on someone that's on their complete lowest

  • I get why people are upset this was wrong for me to do it was a bad thing to do

  • I don't think it was the worst thing in the world, but it wasn't a nice thing

  • I can definitely say that. So I thought okay. You know what? I'll just delete it and I'll apologize.

  • sincerely and

  • That should be it.

  • How foolish I am...

  • I always get people telling me

  • Stop apologizing. You idiot. What are you doing? You're just making things worse.

  • Any time you apologize to these people they don't care and they're just gonna shame you even more. I think that's what happened.

  • BBC posted about it. NBC posted about it. BuzzFeed.

  • I think the BuzzFeed journalists on her Twitter call it the hell fire or something like that.

  • Like this is the hell we live in it's like Geez!

  • But I feel like if I think I've done something wrong...

  • I shouldn't have the ego or the strategy to just say no, it's better if I don't apologize.

  • a lot of people were saying that anyone could have posted this meme and no one would bat an eye and I I

  • Think there is some truth to that

  • I find it interesting how you have someone that's a role model to a lot of kids you make a message about how

  • Much better you are now and then you just fall back into the same pain and somehow I'm the bad role model in this

  • Situation, huh? I'm the villain for just posting a meme about it. It doesn't really make sense to me, and I'm not attacking her

  • I'm just saying that a lot of people were saying that it's not her fault for her addiction. It's an addiction

  • She can't control it and I agree

  • She shouldn't be shamed because of an addiction, but I also don't think babying people will help either

  • Saying that it's completely out of someone's control is also saying that it's not up to them to recover from it

  • It's like saying anyone that recovered from addiction didn't do it from their own work

  • And will it's just a completely random ven, which doesn't make any sense

  • it's always been a meme on this channel that anything I say will be picked up on the media and

  • I feel like this was just a testimony of that mean like that's it's a truth essentially anything I say will be

  • highlighted they will jump on any

  • reason to

  • put down my name because if they really cared about these issues about

  • addiction they would go after the people that that shed a light on it in a positive way not the ones that try and

  • Ridicule it. I don't know. I don't care moving on

  • I wasn't gonna talk about this, but it came on today and I watched it

  • I thought it was so crazy that I had to talk about. It kz9 said there's an interview with Logan Paul and man I

  • Want to like you Logan I swear but you making it really hard and I find this super interesting cos KZ and Logan are

  • very similar personalities, they're all about pushing the edge of

  • Living life to the fullest but their drives are just completely opposite

  • I think it means falling into the social medium machine

  • Over the past four years building an audience

  • Garnering false power through views which equates to money which equates to against success and

  • Then essentially losing it all

  • overnight becoming

  • the most hated man in the world

  • in the snap of a finger

  • So the hyperbole every single time the most hated man

  • Casey asked lo at Logan about this documentary that he's filming and

  • About the whole incident. Is this a fluff piece to make people feel better about Logan Paul? No, no, not at all this. It's it's

  • from

  • Making content throughout the years. I try to be as unbiased as possible and

  • this

  • Documentary is going to be as unbiased as possible, but it's me who makes it

  • Okay, great

  • I'm sure we very unbiased think people should can or will sympathize with me

  • Let's be honest Casey. Like let's be honest Casey. I don't know Marcus

  • I see through your social training Logan

  • When you put out content like that, do you realize the age of your audience? It's odd because Michael I'm 22 years old

  • It's not like I don't know why but whenever I see small things like this. I know I'm nitpicking

  • it feels

  • Disingenuous is it not?

  • Premature like it before you can tell a redemption story. There has to be an act of redemption

  • true

  • What is the act of redemption bin for Logan Paul? It's it's not been done yet

  • That's Logan is talking about how this documentary is going to be his redemption story because people love it a redemption story

  • People told me this

  • Verbatim so many times that you shouldn't you need to do your redemption

  • You need to film a documentary people told me this many times

  • That's how you'll do your comeback and people are telling Logan the same thing and that's why it's doing this documentary

  • Just like people told me after the wall street journal that I need to do a charity

  • For Jewish charities or something like that, and I said no

  • Not because I don't want to because but because it will seem like the most disingenuous thing ever

  • You're not doing it because you want to you're doing it to save your brand and people are smart enough to see through those things

  • the rat Casey has

  • Logan about the red, you know as soon as this forest incident

  • He tastes the rat or whatever

  • Why what was up with that? Yeah, the rat was that was me

  • Becoming obsessed with the idea of being a villain. I just I made the conscious decision

  • I'm gonna I'm gonna be the guy they think I am I can actually

  • Relate to Logan here a lot of times

  • After all the scandals I've been through I question my own morals. I question. Why do I keep ending up in?

  • These situations and a lot of times I find the answer to be I am genuinely a bad person. I do die

  • I genuinely think it a lot of times not all the times

  • But I think the difference is I'm not trying to make other people think

  • I'm a good person

  • I can make content and I have been for four years

  • For four years making people laugh smile believing themselves making them believe that they can accomplish their goals

  • Even if they're from a small town in, Ohio, I've been making videos for eight years

  • I just want to show people that you can make it. Even if you're just from a small town in Sweden

  • What are you saying to use that same pretext as?

  • Sort of justification for you know killing a rat or why didn't kill the rat

  • Just shut up. It doesn't matter at this point don't defend these things. It's the same with me

  • When I drop the n-bomb

  • A lot of people were like, he said it to another person and I always want to say no

  • No one heard me say it, but I'm not gonna use that defense because it doesn't matter

  • That's not what people took out of it some of the other more controversial sensational things you've done

  • Yeah, running around Japan wearing silly outfits. Yeah, so that Union sensitive to culture apparently for some reason

  • Casey calls

  • Casey calling Logan culturally insensitive. It's the most upsetting thing ever for him. I want to address this cuz

  • I'm not gonna lie. This is the the hardest thing about all this is I

  • Think being perceived as culturally insensitive

  • I'm not gonna lie, but the hardest thing out of all this it's the fact that you just called me

  • culturally insensitive

  • That's okay I are we expected to believe that or

  • As far as the outfits go they were on sale at a store the outfits were on sale on their store so then it's okay

  • Right next to the temple that we were at

  • For tourists do we not buy the outfits? Maybe he just doesn't understand what it is. There's a difference between culturally insensitive and

  • insensitive, but it also doesn't matter and you don't seem to understand why one is offensive anyway, so

  • I'm vegan. Now I

  • Think the most important thing to take out of this video is this I'm vegan now

  • Why do you think you being vegan is relevant to anything doing what you want to do to achieve your goals

  • Which is all like I said, it's always been that but all that stuff is overlooked

  • When you make mistake, or I can agree again with Logan here. He's done good

  • I mean, I don't agree with it, but he thinks he's done good like inspiring kids and I can relate to that

  • I think I've done a lot of positive for in with my channel as well that never gets highlighted

  • But I don't feel the need to constantly tell people like I'm a good person. Look I do it done all these things

  • I don't know these charities. I don't know these things. Look I'm a good person. That shouldn't be your mission to keep reminding people

  • so then Logan talks about how it led up to all this scandal like he was just

  • Constantly making videos and not thinking what he was doing. We got so caught up in

  • Creating that we did not stop to think about what we were making and whether or not it was right

  • Because it you make it you put it out

  • We were on autopilot essentially which is it's it's extremely dangerous when you're broadcasting to an audience of five to seven million people every day

  • And so there was no thinking there was it was create content create content create content not okay

  • Hey, take a step back. Slow down breathe. Do you believe that or is that bullshit?

  • Because if that's if that mission is the same as this this momentum this autopilot

  • Where's the distinction between wanting to do good and wanting to you know, looking for sensationalism that will drive clicks?

  • I'm not I'm not sure I understand the question

  • That's such a great question I'm not I'm not sure I understand Chris. Hey, this is too much of a mumbo-jumbo

  • He's saying that if you're just on autopilot, and you're not thinking about what you're doing, how can they you say?

  • That you care about spreading a positive message and not just caring about sensationalism. I understand I understand

  • Okay, I can go on pick details whatever you should watch you interview it's interesting a lot of people gave Casey

  • Or doing this. I think it's good to create a

  • Dialogue it's a shame how people are so militant towards people. They don't like that. They won't even talk to them

  • Because that's really how you create division more than anything, which is leads to more hate

  • I think is he's doing a noble thing. But the final point I find hilarious because Casey praises Logan's

  • Anti-suicide video that the video he did after the whole thing and the response from Logan

  • It's just that video. I think had a very important message behind. It was a I liked that video

  • I tweeted that I liked that video I get for it

  • but did it show you sort of the

  • Demonstrate to you that your channel is capable of so much more

  • And your reach is capable and your voice is capable of so much more than just in socialism views. Yes

  • Did it change you away from?

  • Sensationalism and views that what is a question his answer. It's it's the most viewed suus anti-suicide

  • PSA ever. It's the most

  • viewed ever

  • I am so great. I

  • Have the most viewed PSA anti-suicide video ever. I don't

  • Really want Lowen to come back but I don't think he can until he's completely honest

  • Because people are constantly going to be skeptical

  • especially at this point

  • I think this entire interview Logan is trying to give the answer that he thinks KZ wants and my tip for Logan

  • unsolicited advice would be

  • Question yourself why these?

  • Titles are important to you. Oh, I'm vegan or you can't call me culturally insensitive and why you care that your video?

  • Anti PSA has the most views why is that important to you?

  • And I'm asking you right honestly

  • Is it to reach more people or is it because you like things to be big because we've seen only evidence for that

  • So far, so that's all people are gonna see your intention might be different, but I doubt it

  • Next news twitch added gifts is that in gifts? That's crazy

  • Alright, we're out of time

Pewdepie is a big old meanie, Logan Paul...
