Comments by "D. von N." (@D.von.N) on "a decisive response from Youtube to Russell Brand" video.

Novara media covered this very well yesterday. And how Russel had a very disgusting phone call with Jimmy Savile. And how it was heard in the background the producer telling him not to do it, but Russel went on and on...
Yes, Russel is a product of the media culture, left or right. When did BBC get their funding cut? I suspect they had to resort to some otherwise unthinkable practices, to keep the audience or there would be more cuts. If you don't get funding, you need to try hard to keep money coming in, as BBC isn't 100% public funded.
And that there was this culture in the past when things unthinkable today were permitted back then.
Saying all that, not everybody has fallen this low, so Russel has his own blame to take for what he became. He is a sexual predator and he tried to legitimise it by acting like one publicly, like Savile - things happening in our plain sight. Just every reich has it's raise and fall and so does Russel's aura. If he was that wise he wouldn't let this happen, but he isn't wise. Just intelligent. But even the most ingelligent individual cannot over-rule the laws of nature, and that is the wider nation in this case. He can have 6 million followers, but the majority outside this bubble probably doesn't like him.
Times are changing for sexual predators. I am glad to see him go. I never liked that man and now I know why that was. He has a strange, sinister vibe.
