This is not as bad as the media was painting it, but still is a very ugly practice that I think we should not deffend, he already makes tons of money, why does he need to be paid for being biased in his videos? This is just greedy and questionable, it may not be ilegal but who can really trust this guy when we all know that he can be so easily bought?
Is true that other youtubers have done it way worse and they are not getting even a fraction of the backlash he is getting though.
