(The Times, Sunday Times, Channel 4 Dispatches) Russell Brand accused of rape, sexual assaults and abuse (CW: sexual assault, abuse)

I'm curious as to what you think Brand has ever said that would scare them.
You guys and your persecution complex,the "big pharma silenced him/her" card is only ever brought up when a piece of shit gets called out.
Y'all also make reasonable people who has reasonable criticisms against rich pharma companies look crazy.
Investigations of this type take years, just so you're aware.
Of course. There has to be A LOT of corroboration and fact checking to run a piece of this type, especially in the UK.
Probably and it's honestly best not to engage after this point, at least for me.
Not that this should come to any surprise, but it is absolutely insane how much leeaway you can get by being a lame white dude that can sell himself as an edgy provocateur. All these studios knew this man was a sick mess and just powered through it.
Without the context of knowing this thread and the topic, I could read your post and wonder if you're talking about Matt Walsh, or Joe Rogan, or Jordan Peterson, etc
No, you posted a garbage conspiracy theorist take and are being called out for it.
Lol tell me if my guess is right. You're an antivaxxer no?
Just to be clear, to my limited understanding, Brand recently did a press junket where he was critical of the military industrial complex which I thought to be pretty outright damning. I wasn't aware of any pre-existing investigations into his past.
If you have a limited understanding, you don't have to comment you know
Calling out the military industrial complex being new or significant is funny. Next they'll send agents after John Oliver or any political youtuber.
Being critical of the military industrial complex leads to Channel 4 putting out an investigation into you
Lol wut
Lol wut
Lockheed bear surely pisses his pants every time Russell Brand opens his mouth to criticise the military industrial complex. I'm sure his claims give Lockheed's clients pause before buying military equipment from them.

Russell Brand to be investigated by Jimmy Savile cops

He's a rapist and they don't want to be associated with him, so they don't pay him for ad views anymore. The content of his channel doesn't matter - he is a rapist.
Of course there are lots of other dreadful people who make money from YouTube ads, but Brand is in the news so it's an easy PR win for Google.
Brand can still make money from sponsorships on his channel, but I expect fewer companies will want to sponsor him now.
Makes total sense. No one is going to want their ads on his channel. His brand is toxic. Well, maybe not to all the subscribers who are saying "We love and support you, Russell", but still.

The incident, which happened in Los Angeles in 2008, is the first time Brand has been heard publicly admitting sexual misconduct.

He's put a new video up and he looks scared to death. Blithering on about free speech and how they're trying to take him down. Forgets to deny those allegations that he sexually assaulted multiple women. Oops, that'd be the first thing I'd do! Guess he's got a lot on his mind.
I won't link it, but he has been demonitised so you're not giving him money if you watch. Do not read the comments.

Russell Brand 'ripped holes in woman's tights' and 'refused to call her taxi until she performed a sex act'
A woman - who met the comedian on a flight - alleges he made her feel "vulnerable and intimidated" with his "aggressive behaviour". Brand has previously insisted all his sexual relationships have been consensual.

Rumble refused to demonitise Brand's videos, so a number of large companies have pulled their ads from the platform, including Burger King and ASOS. I wonder if Rumble will stick to their guns now it's losing them money. I suppose they have to since "free speech" is their USP.

Kinda shocked BK was already there, since being a den of complete shitholes is the entire mission statement of Rumble
I think danny masterson 30 years has sacred the shit out of predators with "historic" crimes. They've realised the world has changed and it doesn't take 50 women with photographic evidence to get a serious sentence anymore.
Capitalists like evil sociopath dollars too. They'd never stop appealing to them if they didn't think there was a risk of really bad PR.

Nation Could Have Sworn Russell Brand Was Already Convicted Sex Offender
NEW YORK—Stressing that the memory seemed so fresh and vivid in their minds, the confused nation announced Monday that they could have sworn British entertainer Russell Brand was already a convicted sex offender. “Interesting...so Russell Brand definitely wasn’t already found guilty of...

Also considering they seem to be faking their views to inflate the numbers I would say things aren't looking good unless they have serious financial backers who are determined to keep it going.

Police probe after Brand sexual offence claims
The Met will investigate allegations of "non-recent" offences following news reports about Brand.
www.bbc.co.uk
During filming for the rom-com Arthur in July 2010 the comedian is alleged to have exposed himself to the anonymous woman before following her into a bathroom and sexually assaulting her.
Brand is facing accusations of rape, sexual assaults and emotional abuse after reports in the British media.
He denies the allegations and says his relationships were "always consensual".
Brand has yet to respond to the lawsuit.
British police have said they are investigating a number of claims made against Brand, but the case, filed with New York State Supreme Court on Friday, marks the first time any such accusations have been made in a lawsuit.
In an affidavit, the woman - referred to as Jane Doe - claims the actor had "appeared intoxicated, smelled of alcohol, and was carrying a bottle of vodka on set" before the assault on 7 July 2010.
He then exposed himself to his accuser in full view of the cast and crew, the papers say.
Later the same day the plaintiff says Brand entered the bathroom after her and assaulted her as "a member of production crew guarded the door from outside".
Film studio Warner Bros Pictures and other companies involved in the production are also named as defendants.
The woman says as a result of the alleged abuse she suffers from extreme embarrassment, shame and fear as well as finding it difficult to trust others.
She says she has professional concerns about being named in association with the case as she still works as an actor and fears she could be "blacklisted in the industry".
She is reported to be seeking unspecified damages from the British actor.

He's been dropped by pretty much everyone long before now. His profile only really comes from his social channels.
Unless you mean dropped in a deep dark hole, in which case I agree.
