This video asks the question if the article from the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) was a deliberate attack to inflict economic damages on PewDiePie, but more importantly to discredit YouTube as an advertising and also news platform.

Military History Visualized provides a series of short narrative and visual presentations like documentaries based on academic literature or sometimes primary sources. Videos are intended as introduction to military history, but also contain a lot of details for history buffs. Since the aim is to keep the episodes short and comprehensive some details are often cut. » HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT MILITARY HISTORY VISUALIZED « (A) You can support my channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv (B) You can also buy "Spoils of War" (merchandise) in the online shop: https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop » SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS « facebook: https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ twitter: https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized tumblr: http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ » SOURCES « »Books« Kramer, Alan: Blockade and economic warfare; in: Winter, Jay (ed.): Cambridge History of the First World War, Volume II: The State Blackwill, Robert D.; Harris, Jennifer M.: War by Other Means – Geoeconomics and Statecraft Rockoff, Hugh: America’s Economic Way of War »Articles« French advertising giant pulls out of Google and YouTube https://www.theguardian.com/media/2017/mar/17/google-pledges-more-control-for-brands-over-ad-placement Analysts predict the YouTube advertiser boycott will cost Google $750 million http://uk.businessinsider.com/analyst-predicts-the-youtube-ad-boycott-will-cost-google-750-million-2017-3?r=US&IR=T Here are the biggest brands that have pulled their advertising from YouTube over extremist videos http://www.businessinsider.de/the
