More like someone does something for media attention.

Isn't it funny how all of these things happen after the media started using pewdiepie for clicks?

For years, pewdiepie went about his business and nothing happened. Then one day the media decided to exploit pewdiepie for views and all of a sudden, the attention seekers pile on.

PewDiePie gets more views on Youtube than the entire mainstream media combined, who pour a shitload of money into Youtube to get their videos promoted because they are losing viewers and can't get the ratings through good content.

Of course they hate the fact. They try to paint him in a negative light at any point possible, which just backfires on them, because they are just doubling-down on the same garbage which is what caused their massive loss of viewership in the first place.

People are fed up of old media pundits and their garbage "news" (or deliberate omission of). Pew News is now the mainstream news. Of course, trolls have taken the opportunity to use PDP to keep trolling the left-wing media, who seem eager to take any bait they're thrown.
